Ranch Record
Much change will take place in Steiner Ranch later this month on April 19th homeowners will vote in seven new board members to the Steiner Ranch Master Association (SRMA) making it an all homeowner run board for the first time Two days later two new members will be voted in to serve on the Steiner Ranch Residential Association (SRROA) Board
As a result of developer transition the election process for the SRMA will represent the biggest change in how homeowners elect members to the board As has been shared in the past voting districts have been created in order to ensure that all areas of the SRMA are represented on the board Although much information has been provided over the past several months regarding the upcoming elections I believe there is no such thing as over communication Should you have any questions please do not hesitate to contact the Association Office
Below are key terms all homeowners should be familiar with when voting
Quorum ndash A quorum is the minimum number of property owners that must be present or by submitted proxy for the annual meeting to be valid The minimum number needed for a valid annual meeting for the Master Association is 370 members and 70 for the Residential Owners Association
Proxy - A proxy is the written authorization that allows one person to appoint another (the proxy holder) to vote on his or her behalf Itrsquos important to note that if yoursquore not interested in voting for a candidate the proxy can be submitted just for the purpose of obtaining a quorum
On-line voting ndash The annual meeting packet will contain a link to the on-line voting website which will direct the property owner to a ballot with the eligible candidates
Voting in person ndash Paper ballots will be available and collected at the annual meeting
I encourage all homeowners to exercise their civic duty and vote All board members are elected to represent and protect the best interest of the community while maintaining the value of jointly owned assets In short the role of the Board is to protect and increase property values by successfully operating the Association maintaining common property and enforcing Steiner Ranch governing documents
I look forward to our upcoming elections and working with our new and returning board members

Submitted by Tom Henry Community Relations at Longhorn Village April is not only National
Food Month but indeed celebrates a plethora of glorious favorite provisions of the masses including but not limited to National Brussels Sprouts and Cabbage Month National BLT Sandwich Month Cranberries and Gooseberries Pecans Garlic Soft Pretzels Grilled Cheese Sandwiches Soy Foods Tomatillos and Asian Pears Fresh Florida Tomatoesndash the delicacies commemorated in the month of April alone could provide endless nourishment for the most refined of palates In recognition of this great bounty of naturersquos goodness my quest to do justice by this article begins and ends with one of the finest purveyors of exquisite cuisine in our neighborhood
Chef de Cuisine Joel Jones of Longhorn Village has the creative genius and savoir faire worthy of Michelin Star recognition (in my very humble opinion ndash I just rented the movie ldquoBurntrdquo with my wife so I know about these things) Joel worked his way through the industry starting at age 13 washing dishes at a small pizza house in
Illinois He was hired by Omni Hotels and quickly ascended from Line Cook to Executive Sous-chef in just 4 years
His th i r s t for the complex ability to not just please but delight the vast variety of culinary explorers living within Longhorn Village is quite
simply unparalleledWith a ldquoPlow to Platerdquo philosophy dining selections are prepared
with only the finest local ingredients whenever possible Having full control of the menu Chef Joel selects his produce from local growers who deliver 6 days a week Beef selections are Prime Grade from local ranchers and Spirits are offered from Texas distilleries Fresh fish deliveries are made 3 days per week and most offerings come from The Gulf including the shrimp and lobster
April is National Food Month

Of course the creative genius within inspires him to constantly reach for new and exotic delights including elk antelope crab-stuffed f lounder Northern Pacif ic halibut and Maine lobster
He offers his staff the same opportunities to explore their creative talents by encouraging them to prepare samplings for the team to experience and if they make the grade will be presented on the menu Each evening the fine dining crew assembles for a ldquofamily mealrdquo tasting of the selections of the night (yep just like in the movie)
Chef Joel also embraces critique from The Culinary Committee which is made up of Longhorn Village residents who offer feedback at regular monthly meetings All resident input and comments whether positive or negative are read daily to staff members and are published to The Culinary Council for review
Dietary restrictions preferences or choices are known on an individual basis to allow each resident to enjoy the full dining experience without having to explain or make special requests
Another closely held philosophy spread throughout his team is an emphasis on full flavor portion controlled options that allow for a greater individual choice plated in small or regular sizes
I have had the great pleasure of working with Chef Joel and presenting his distinguished
works of art at business meetings all over the Austin area It has become common for my clients to ask when I schedule a lunch meeting if it will be prepared by our Chef again I often tell him he makes my work not only easier but that there is a sense of pride in knowing I will be greeted at the door with anticipation and a sense of admiration knowing my presentation will be remembered for his creative talent
A good cook is a peculiar gift of the gods He must be a perfect creature from the brain to the palate from the palate to the fingerrsquos end ndash Walter Savage Landor

News You Can Use
Submitted by Shelley Coleman MA LPC-SRecently I was fortunate to have the opportunity to speak to
the Canyon Ridge Middle School PTA members at their monthly meeting Specifically I was asked to speak on Anxiety and Children As a parent of a middle school child and therapy provider for adolescents this subject is more than relevant to me
In my therapy practice and in my home I see the increasing social and academic pressures for our kids Recently a poll conducted by NPR along with the Robert Wood Johnson Foundation and the Harvard School of Public Health found that nearly 40 of parents said their high school kids are experiencing a lot of stress from school Specifically longer homework sessions high stakes testing and more competitive college admissions are the drivers In my own school district and community the options for extracurriculars are countless and the sizeable academic menu of choices is growing
I realize that my children are incredibly fortunate to have these amazing opportunities I also realize that with great opportunity comes great responsibility How can I help my child find the balance between exposure to these resources and the ability to manage their schedules without creating an environment that is overwhelming and anxiety provoking
These are questions of course that families have to answer for themselves Just as individual families have varying priorities children vary on the types of schedules they can manage
To be sure adolescence is an anxious time As a parent we can play a key role in how our children experience anxiety Some things we can do as parents arebull Recognizeandhelpchildrenidentifyanxiousfeelingsbull Helpchildrendevelopcopingstrategiesbull Expresspositiveandrealisticexpectationsbull Validatefeelingsbutdonrsquotempowerthembull Encouragetoleranceofanxiousfeelingsbull ModelhealthywaysofmanagingstressandanxietyBy helping our children to identify and express their anxious
feelings we can begin to address concerns Like all uncomfortable emotions anxiety is a normal response that serves a purpose Helping our children label and express their feelings can be anxiety reducing Learning to recognize express tolerate and manage anxiety is a priceless skill As role models for our children coping with our own stress and anxiety can serve as a valuable example
Parents can model good stress management by making sleep nutrition and exercise a priority We can learn to recognize our personal limits for demands of our time and resources and set healthy boundaries And when indicated we can utilize professional resources like school counselors or independent therapists
If you think your child may have an issue with anxiety there are several symptoms you may notice Behaviorally teens may engage in unhealthy coping behaviors such as drug and alcohol use They may limit or avoid activities in an attempt to reduce anxiety Physically
Adolescents and Anxietyteens may report sleep disturbances headaches stomach aches or symptoms such as racing heart dizziness and muscle tension You may notice that symptoms are consistently very intense and go on for a long period of time Contacting a professional therapist can be of value in assessing the severity of the anxiety and determining if counseling is indicated
As parents we are instrumental in helping our children become healthy resilient individuals By setting realistic expectations and helping our children to prioritize their schedules we can teach them to set healthy limits and not over extend themselves We can teach them to tolerate and manage their own anxiety And when necessary we can seek out professional help

April Gardening TipsOffered by WeekendGardenerNet
Use the below information to determine what gardening tasks you want to accomplish this month
PlanningWhen purchasing bedding annuals this spring choose properly
grown plants with good color Buy plants with well-developed root systems that are vigorous but not too large for their pots Plants that bloom in the pack are often root bound and can be set back for several weeks after being transplanted Plants not yet in bloom will actually bloom sooner be better established and grow faster
For hot-weather color select one of the following Gloriosa Daisy Madagascar Periwinkle Ornamental Peppers Mexican Zinnia or Amaranthus Josephs Coat Plan to attract hummingbirds to your garden this year by planting red or orange flowers Monarda (common names beebalm horsemint Oswego tea and bergamot) is a good perennial plant that thrives in sun and provides nectar for these small birds

YOUR BRACES WITH DR JACKSON
Dr RJ Jackson
For years orthodontics have been a ldquoreactiverdquo profession Parents would slowly watch their childrsquos teeth go from bad to worse while waiting for the baby teeth to fall out then finally visit an orthodontist for a set of braces Today orthodontics has evolved into a ldquoprevention focusedrdquo profession Longterm research studies have proven that preventing a problem from occurring is better than allowing the problem to occur and then fixing it The American Association of Orthodontics (AAO) and the American Board of Orthodontics (ABO) both recommend every child have an evaluation no later than age 7 Timing is of the essence because the ability to correct certain problems greatly diminishes as the child develops over time
Early detection and correction can also prevent future extractions improve self-esteem decrease the overall cost of orthodontic treatment and decrease the chances of dental complications later on Another benefit of early correction includes
improved stability which decreases the likelihood of teeth shifting back to the original improper position later in life
Although there are many benefits to treatment at an early age it is not recommended for every child Children treated unnecessarily can negatively impact their dental health and increase the total overall expenses for parentsThis is one reason it is imperative for parents to choose a board-certified orthodontist for treatment A board certified orthodontist has demonstrated competence and is held accountable for their work by the American Board of Orthodontics Only 1 out of 3 orthodontists are board-certified so do not make the mistake of assuming an orthodontist holds this recognition Your board-certified orthodontist will inform you if the time is right for orthodontic treatment
Contact RJ Orthodontics today to schedule a complimentary examination with a board-certified orthodontist

Ranch Record
Much change will take place in Steiner Ranch later this month on April 19th homeowners will vote in seven new board members to the Steiner Ranch Master Association (SRMA) making it an all homeowner run board for the first time Two days later two new members will be voted in to serve on the Steiner Ranch Residential Association (SRROA) Board
As a result of developer transition the election process for the SRMA will represent the biggest change in how homeowners elect members to the board As has been shared in the past voting districts have been created in order to ensure that all areas of the SRMA are represented on the board Although much information has been provided over the past several months regarding the upcoming elections I believe there is no such thing as over communication Should you have any questions please do not hesitate to contact the Association Office
Below are key terms all homeowners should be familiar with when voting
Quorum ndash A quorum is the minimum number of property owners that must be present or by submitted proxy for the annual meeting to be valid The minimum number needed for a valid annual meeting for the Master Association is 370 members and 70 for the Residential Owners Association
Proxy - A proxy is the written authorization that allows one person to appoint another (the proxy holder) to vote on his or her behalf Itrsquos important to note that if yoursquore not interested in voting for a candidate the proxy can be submitted just for the purpose of obtaining a quorum
On-line voting ndash The annual meeting packet will contain a link to the on-line voting website which will direct the property owner to a ballot with the eligible candidates
Voting in person ndash Paper ballots will be available and collected at the annual meeting
I encourage all homeowners to exercise their civic duty and vote All board members are elected to represent and protect the best interest of the community while maintaining the value of jointly owned assets In short the role of the Board is to protect and increase property values by successfully operating the Association maintaining common property and enforcing Steiner Ranch governing documents
I look forward to our upcoming elections and working with our new and returning board members

Submitted by Tom Henry Community Relations at Longhorn Village April is not only National
Food Month but indeed celebrates a plethora of glorious favorite provisions of the masses including but not limited to National Brussels Sprouts and Cabbage Month National BLT Sandwich Month Cranberries and Gooseberries Pecans Garlic Soft Pretzels Grilled Cheese Sandwiches Soy Foods Tomatillos and Asian Pears Fresh Florida Tomatoesndash the delicacies commemorated in the month of April alone could provide endless nourishment for the most refined of palates In recognition of this great bounty of naturersquos goodness my quest to do justice by this article begins and ends with one of the finest purveyors of exquisite cuisine in our neighborhood
Chef de Cuisine Joel Jones of Longhorn Village has the creative genius and savoir faire worthy of Michelin Star recognition (in my very humble opinion ndash I just rented the movie ldquoBurntrdquo with my wife so I know about these things) Joel worked his way through the industry starting at age 13 washing dishes at a small pizza house in
Illinois He was hired by Omni Hotels and quickly ascended from Line Cook to Executive Sous-chef in just 4 years
His th i r s t for the complex ability to not just please but delight the vast variety of culinary explorers living within Longhorn Village is quite
simply unparalleledWith a ldquoPlow to Platerdquo philosophy dining selections are prepared
with only the finest local ingredients whenever possible Having full control of the menu Chef Joel selects his produce from local growers who deliver 6 days a week Beef selections are Prime Grade from local ranchers and Spirits are offered from Texas distilleries Fresh fish deliveries are made 3 days per week and most offerings come from The Gulf including the shrimp and lobster
April is National Food Month

Of course the creative genius within inspires him to constantly reach for new and exotic delights including elk antelope crab-stuffed f lounder Northern Pacif ic halibut and Maine lobster
He offers his staff the same opportunities to explore their creative talents by encouraging them to prepare samplings for the team to experience and if they make the grade will be presented on the menu Each evening the fine dining crew assembles for a ldquofamily mealrdquo tasting of the selections of the night (yep just like in the movie)
Chef Joel also embraces critique from The Culinary Committee which is made up of Longhorn Village residents who offer feedback at regular monthly meetings All resident input and comments whether positive or negative are read daily to staff members and are published to The Culinary Council for review
Dietary restrictions preferences or choices are known on an individual basis to allow each resident to enjoy the full dining experience without having to explain or make special requests
Another closely held philosophy spread throughout his team is an emphasis on full flavor portion controlled options that allow for a greater individual choice plated in small or regular sizes
I have had the great pleasure of working with Chef Joel and presenting his distinguished
works of art at business meetings all over the Austin area It has become common for my clients to ask when I schedule a lunch meeting if it will be prepared by our Chef again I often tell him he makes my work not only easier but that there is a sense of pride in knowing I will be greeted at the door with anticipation and a sense of admiration knowing my presentation will be remembered for his creative talent
A good cook is a peculiar gift of the gods He must be a perfect creature from the brain to the palate from the palate to the fingerrsquos end ndash Walter Savage Landor

Submitted by Shelley Coleman MA LPC-SRecently I was fortunate to have the opportunity to speak to
the Canyon Ridge Middle School PTA members at their monthly meeting Specifically I was asked to speak on Anxiety and Children As a parent of a middle school child and therapy provider for adolescents this subject is more than relevant to me
In my therapy practice and in my home I see the increasing social and academic pressures for our kids Recently a poll conducted by NPR along with the Robert Wood Johnson Foundation and the Harvard School of Public Health found that nearly 40 of parents said their high school kids are experiencing a lot of stress from school Specifically longer homework sessions high stakes testing and more competitive college admissions are the drivers In my own school district and community the options for extracurriculars are countless and the sizeable academic menu of choices is growing
I realize that my children are incredibly fortunate to have these amazing opportunities I also realize that with great opportunity comes great responsibility How can I help my child find the balance between exposure to these resources and the ability to manage their schedules without creating an environment that is overwhelming and anxiety provoking
These are questions of course that families have to answer for themselves Just as individual families have varying priorities children vary on the types of schedules they can manage
To be sure adolescence is an anxious time As a parent we can play a key role in how our children experience anxiety Some things we can do as parents arebull Recognizeandhelpchildrenidentifyanxiousfeelingsbull Helpchildrendevelopcopingstrategiesbull Expresspositiveandrealisticexpectationsbull Validatefeelingsbutdonrsquotempowerthembull Encouragetoleranceofanxiousfeelingsbull ModelhealthywaysofmanagingstressandanxietyBy helping our children to identify and express their anxious
feelings we can begin to address concerns Like all uncomfortable emotions anxiety is a normal response that serves a purpose Helping our children label and express their feelings can be anxiety reducing Learning to recognize express tolerate and manage anxiety is a priceless skill As role models for our children coping with our own stress and anxiety can serve as a valuable example
Parents can model good stress management by making sleep nutrition and exercise a priority We can learn to recognize our personal limits for demands of our time and resources and set healthy boundaries And when indicated we can utilize professional resources like school counselors or independent therapists
If you think your child may have an issue with anxiety there are several symptoms you may notice Behaviorally teens may engage in unhealthy coping behaviors such as drug and alcohol use They may limit or avoid activities in an attempt to reduce anxiety Physically
Adolescents and Anxietyteens may report sleep disturbances headaches stomach aches or symptoms such as racing heart dizziness and muscle tension You may notice that symptoms are consistently very intense and go on for a long period of time Contacting a professional therapist can be of value in assessing the severity of the anxiety and determining if counseling is indicated
As parents we are instrumental in helping our children become healthy resilient individuals By setting realistic expectations and helping our children to prioritize their schedules we can teach them to set healthy limits and not over extend themselves We can teach them to tolerate and manage their own anxiety And when necessary we can seek out professional help

April Gardening TipsOffered by WeekendGardenerNet
Use the below information to determine what gardening tasks you want to accomplish this month
PlanningWhen purchasing bedding annuals this spring choose properly
grown plants with good color Buy plants with well-developed root systems that are vigorous but not too large for their pots Plants that bloom in the pack are often root bound and can be set back for several weeks after being transplanted Plants not yet in bloom will actually bloom sooner be better established and grow faster
For hot-weather color select one of the following Gloriosa Daisy Madagascar Periwinkle Ornamental Peppers Mexican Zinnia or Amaranthus Josephs Coat Plan to attract hummingbirds to your garden this year by planting red or orange flowers Monarda (common names beebalm horsemint Oswego tea and bergamot) is a good perennial plant that thrives in sun and provides nectar for these small birds

For years orthodontics have been a ldquoreactiverdquo profession Parents would slowly watch their childrsquos teeth go from bad to worse while waiting for the baby teeth to fall out then finally visit an orthodontist for a set of braces Today orthodontics has evolved into a ldquoprevention focusedrdquo profession Longterm research studies have proven that preventing a problem from occurring is better than allowing the problem to occur and then fixing it The American Association of Orthodontics (AAO) and the American Board of Orthodontics (ABO) both recommend every child have an evaluation no later than age 7 Timing is of the essence because the ability to correct certain problems greatly diminishes as the child develops over time
Early detection and correction can also prevent future extractions improve self-esteem decrease the overall cost of orthodontic treatment and decrease the chances of dental complications later on Another benefit of early correction includes
improved stability which decreases the likelihood of teeth shifting back to the original improper position later in life
Although there are many benefits to treatment at an early age it is not recommended for every child Children treated unnecessarily can negatively impact their dental health and increase the total overall expenses for parentsThis is one reason it is imperative for parents to choose a board-certified orthodontist for treatment A board certified orthodontist has demonstrated competence and is held accountable for their work by the American Board of Orthodontics Only 1 out of 3 orthodontists are board-certified so do not make the mistake of assuming an orthodontist holds this recognition Your board-certified orthodontist will inform you if the time is right for orthodontic treatment

Ranch Record
Much change will take place in Steiner Ranch later this month on April 19th homeowners will vote in seven new board members to the Steiner Ranch Master Association (SRMA) making it an all homeowner run board for the first time Two days later two new members will be voted in to serve on the Steiner Ranch Residential Association (SRROA) Board
As a result of developer transition the election process for the SRMA will represent the biggest change in how homeowners elect members to the board As has been shared in the past voting districts have been created in order to ensure that all areas of the SRMA are represented on the board Although much information has been provided over the past several months regarding the upcoming elections I believe there is no such thing as over communication Should you have any questions please do not hesitate to contact the Association Office
Below are key terms all homeowners should be familiar with when voting
Quorum ndash A quorum is the minimum number of property owners that must be present or by submitted proxy for the annual meeting to be valid The minimum number needed for a valid annual meeting for the Master Association is 370 members and 70 for the Residential Owners Association
Proxy - A proxy is the written authorization that allows one person to appoint another (the proxy holder) to vote on his or her behalf Itrsquos important to note that if yoursquore not interested in voting for a candidate the proxy can be submitted just for the purpose of obtaining a quorum
On-line voting ndash The annual meeting packet will contain a link to the on-line voting website which will direct the property owner to a ballot with the eligible candidates
Voting in person ndash Paper ballots will be available and collected at the annual meeting
I encourage all homeowners to exercise their civic duty and vote All board members are elected to represent and protect the best interest of the community while maintaining the value of jointly owned assets In short the role of the Board is to protect and increase property values by successfully operating the Association maintaining common property and enforcing Steiner Ranch governing documents
I look forward to our upcoming elections and working with our new and returning board members

Submitted by Tom Henry Community Relations at Longhorn Village April is not only National
Food Month but indeed celebrates a plethora of glorious favorite provisions of the masses including but not limited to National Brussels Sprouts and Cabbage Month National BLT Sandwich Month Cranberries and Gooseberries Pecans Garlic Soft Pretzels Grilled Cheese Sandwiches Soy Foods Tomatillos and Asian Pears Fresh Florida Tomatoesndash the delicacies commemorated in the month of April alone could provide endless nourishment for the most refined of palates In recognition of this great bounty of naturersquos goodness my quest to do justice by this article begins and ends with one of the finest purveyors of exquisite cuisine in our neighborhood
Chef de Cuisine Joel Jones of Longhorn Village has the creative genius and savoir faire worthy of Michelin Star recognition (in my very humble opinion ndash I just rented the movie ldquoBurntrdquo with my wife so I know about these things) Joel worked his way through the industry starting at age 13 washing dishes at a small pizza house in
Illinois He was hired by Omni Hotels and quickly ascended from Line Cook to Executive Sous-chef in just 4 years
His th i r s t for the complex ability to not just please but delight the vast variety of culinary explorers living within Longhorn Village is quite
simply unparalleledWith a ldquoPlow to Platerdquo philosophy dining selections are prepared
with only the finest local ingredients whenever possible Having full control of the menu Chef Joel selects his produce from local growers who deliver 6 days a week Beef selections are Prime Grade from local ranchers and Spirits are offered from Texas distilleries Fresh fish deliveries are made 3 days per week and most offerings come from The Gulf including the shrimp and lobster
April is National Food Month

Of course the creative genius within inspires him to constantly reach for new and exotic delights including elk antelope crab-stuffed f lounder Northern Pacif ic halibut and Maine lobster
He offers his staff the same opportunities to explore their creative talents by encouraging them to prepare samplings for the team to experience and if they make the grade will be presented on the menu Each evening the fine dining crew assembles for a ldquofamily mealrdquo tasting of the selections of the night (yep just like in the movie)
Chef Joel also embraces critique from The Culinary Committee which is made up of Longhorn Village residents who offer feedback at regular monthly meetings All resident input and comments whether positive or negative are read daily to staff members and are published to The Culinary Council for review
Dietary restrictions preferences or choices are known on an individual basis to allow each resident to enjoy the full dining experience without having to explain or make special requests
Another closely held philosophy spread throughout his team is an emphasis on full flavor portion controlled options that allow for a greater individual choice plated in small or regular sizes
I have had the great pleasure of working with Chef Joel and presenting his distinguished
works of art at business meetings all over the Austin area It has become common for my clients to ask when I schedule a lunch meeting if it will be prepared by our Chef again I often tell him he makes my work not only easier but that there is a sense of pride in knowing I will be greeted at the door with anticipation and a sense of admiration knowing my presentation will be remembered for his creative talent
A good cook is a peculiar gift of the gods He must be a perfect creature from the brain to the palate from the palate to the fingerrsquos end ndash Walter Savage Landor

News You Can Use
Submitted by Shelley Coleman MA LPC-SRecently I was fortunate to have the opportunity to speak to
the Canyon Ridge Middle School PTA members at their monthly meeting Specifically I was asked to speak on Anxiety and Children As a parent of a middle school child and therapy provider for adolescents this subject is more than relevant to me
In my therapy practice and in my home I see the increasing social and academic pressures for our kids Recently a poll conducted by NPR along with the Robert Wood Johnson Foundation and the Harvard School of Public Health found that nearly 40 of parents said their high school kids are experiencing a lot of stress from school Specifically longer homework sessions high stakes testing and more competitive college admissions are the drivers In my own school district and community the options for extracurriculars are countless and the sizeable academic menu of choices is growing
I realize that my children are incredibly fortunate to have these amazing opportunities I also realize that with great opportunity comes great responsibility How can I help my child find the balance between exposure to these resources and the ability to manage their schedules without creating an environment that is overwhelming and anxiety provoking
These are questions of course that families have to answer for themselves Just as individual families have varying priorities children vary on the types of schedules they can manage
To be sure adolescence is an anxious time As a parent we can play a key role in how our children experience anxiety Some things we can do as parents arebull Recognizeandhelpchildrenidentifyanxiousfeelingsbull Helpchildrendevelopcopingstrategiesbull Expresspositiveandrealisticexpectationsbull Validatefeelingsbutdonrsquotempowerthembull Encouragetoleranceofanxiousfeelingsbull ModelhealthywaysofmanagingstressandanxietyBy helping our children to identify and express their anxious
feelings we can begin to address concerns Like all uncomfortable emotions anxiety is a normal response that serves a purpose Helping our children label and express their feelings can be anxiety reducing Learning to recognize express tolerate and manage anxiety is a priceless skill As role models for our children coping with our own stress and anxiety can serve as a valuable example
Parents can model good stress management by making sleep nutrition and exercise a priority We can learn to recognize our personal limits for demands of our time and resources and set healthy boundaries And when indicated we can utilize professional resources like school counselors or independent therapists
If you think your child may have an issue with anxiety there are several symptoms you may notice Behaviorally teens may engage in unhealthy coping behaviors such as drug and alcohol use They may limit or avoid activities in an attempt to reduce anxiety Physically
Adolescents and Anxietyteens may report sleep disturbances headaches stomach aches or symptoms such as racing heart dizziness and muscle tension You may notice that symptoms are consistently very intense and go on for a long period of time Contacting a professional therapist can be of value in assessing the severity of the anxiety and determining if counseling is indicated
As parents we are instrumental in helping our children become healthy resilient individuals By setting realistic expectations and helping our children to prioritize their schedules we can teach them to set healthy limits and not over extend themselves We can teach them to tolerate and manage their own anxiety And when necessary we can seek out professional help

PlanningWhen purchasing bedding annuals this spring choose properly
grown plants with good color Buy plants with well-developed root systems that are vigorous but not too large for their pots Plants that bloom in the pack are often root bound and can be set back for several weeks after being transplanted Plants not yet in bloom will actually bloom sooner be better established and grow faster
For hot-weather color select one of the following Gloriosa Daisy Madagascar Periwinkle Ornamental Peppers Mexican Zinnia or Amaranthus Josephs Coat Plan to attract hummingbirds to your garden this year by planting red or orange flowers Monarda (common names beebalm horsemint Oswego tea and bergamot) is a good perennial plant that thrives in sun and provides nectar for these small birds

Dr RJ Jackson
For years orthodontics have been a ldquoreactiverdquo profession Parents would slowly watch their childrsquos teeth go from bad to worse while waiting for the baby teeth to fall out then finally visit an orthodontist for a set of braces Today orthodontics has evolved into a ldquoprevention focusedrdquo profession Longterm research studies have proven that preventing a problem from occurring is better than allowing the problem to occur and then fixing it The American Association of Orthodontics (AAO) and the American Board of Orthodontics (ABO) both recommend every child have an evaluation no later than age 7 Timing is of the essence because the ability to correct certain problems greatly diminishes as the child develops over time
Early detection and correction can also prevent future extractions improve self-esteem decrease the overall cost of orthodontic treatment and decrease the chances of dental complications later on Another benefit of early correction includes
improved stability which decreases the likelihood of teeth shifting back to the original improper position later in life
Although there are many benefits to treatment at an early age it is not recommended for every child Children treated unnecessarily can negatively impact their dental health and increase the total overall expenses for parentsThis is one reason it is imperative for parents to choose a board-certified orthodontist for treatment A board certified orthodontist has demonstrated competence and is held accountable for their work by the American Board of Orthodontics Only 1 out of 3 orthodontists are board-certified so do not make the mistake of assuming an orthodontist holds this recognition Your board-certified orthodontist will inform you if the time is right for orthodontic treatment
Contact RJ Orthodontics today to schedule a complimentary examination with a board-certified orthodontist

Ranch Record
Much change will take place in Steiner Ranch later this month on April 19th homeowners will vote in seven new board members to the Steiner Ranch Master Association (SRMA) making it an all homeowner run board for the first time Two days later two new members will be voted in to serve on the Steiner Ranch Residential Association (SRROA) Board
As a result of developer transition the election process for the SRMA will represent the biggest change in how homeowners elect members to the board As has been shared in the past voting districts have been created in order to ensure that all areas of the SRMA are represented on the board Although much information has been provided over the past several months regarding the upcoming elections I believe there is no such thing as over communication Should you have any questions please do not hesitate to contact the Association Office
Below are key terms all homeowners should be familiar with when voting
Quorum ndash A quorum is the minimum number of property owners that must be present or by submitted proxy for the annual meeting to be valid The minimum number needed for a valid annual meeting for the Master Association is 370 members and 70 for the Residential Owners Association
Proxy - A proxy is the written authorization that allows one person to appoint another (the proxy holder) to vote on his or her behalf Itrsquos important to note that if yoursquore not interested in voting for a candidate the proxy can be submitted just for the purpose of obtaining a quorum
On-line voting ndash The annual meeting packet will contain a link to the on-line voting website which will direct the property owner to a ballot with the eligible candidates
Voting in person ndash Paper ballots will be available and collected at the annual meeting
I encourage all homeowners to exercise their civic duty and vote All board members are elected to represent and protect the best interest of the community while maintaining the value of jointly owned assets In short the role of the Board is to protect and increase property values by successfully operating the Association maintaining common property and enforcing Steiner Ranch governing documents
I look forward to our upcoming elections and working with our new and returning board members

outside SteinerThe group will leave Cups amp Cones at 730 AM and will target
some not-too-far coffee shop for some espresso pastries and socializing The ride will average around 17 mph and should be perfect for those looking for an easier and more relaxed alternative to our Saturday rides Our destination is typically Red Horn Coffee House and Brewing Company at 1431 and Parmer which is 18 miles from Cups amp Cones Although this is technically a lsquodrop ridersquo we will make great efforts to keep the group together Note that you should be able to ride the 38-50 miles at a 16-17 mph average pace for the whole ride

Food Month but indeed celebrates a plethora of glorious favorite provisions of the masses including but not limited to National Brussels Sprouts and Cabbage Month National BLT Sandwich Month Cranberries and Gooseberries Pecans Garlic Soft Pretzels Grilled Cheese Sandwiches Soy Foods Tomatillos and Asian Pears Fresh Florida Tomatoesndash the delicacies commemorated in the month of April alone could provide endless nourishment for the most refined of palates In recognition of this great bounty of naturersquos goodness my quest to do justice by this article begins and ends with one of the finest purveyors of exquisite cuisine in our neighborhood
Chef de Cuisine Joel Jones of Longhorn Village has the creative genius and savoir faire worthy of Michelin Star recognition (in my very humble opinion ndash I just rented the movie ldquoBurntrdquo with my wife so I know about these things) Joel worked his way through the industry starting at age 13 washing dishes at a small pizza house in
Illinois He was hired by Omni Hotels and quickly ascended from Line Cook to Executive Sous-chef in just 4 years
His th i r s t for the complex ability to not just please but delight the vast variety of culinary explorers living within Longhorn Village is quite
simply unparalleledWith a ldquoPlow to Platerdquo philosophy dining selections are prepared

Of course the creative genius within inspires him to constantly reach for new and exotic delights including elk antelope crab-stuffed f lounder Northern Pacif ic halibut and Maine lobster
He offers his staff the same opportunities to explore their creative talents by encouraging them to prepare samplings for the team to experience and if they make the grade will be presented on the menu Each evening the fine dining crew assembles for a ldquofamily mealrdquo tasting of the selections of the night (yep just like in the movie)
Chef Joel also embraces critique from The Culinary Committee which is made up of Longhorn Village residents who offer feedback at regular monthly meetings All resident input and comments whether positive or negative are read daily to staff members and are published to The Culinary Council for review
Dietary restrictions preferences or choices are known on an individual basis to allow each resident to enjoy the full dining experience without having to explain or make special requests
Another closely held philosophy spread throughout his team is an emphasis on full flavor portion controlled options that allow for a greater individual choice plated in small or regular sizes
I have had the great pleasure of working with Chef Joel and presenting his distinguished
works of art at business meetings all over the Austin area It has become common for my clients to ask when I schedule a lunch meeting if it will be prepared by our Chef again I often tell him he makes my work not only easier but that there is a sense of pride in knowing I will be greeted at the door with anticipation and a sense of admiration knowing my presentation will be remembered for his creative talent
A good cook is a peculiar gift of the gods He must be a perfect creature from the brain to the palate from the palate to the fingerrsquos end ndash Walter Savage Landor

Submitted by Shelley Coleman MA LPC-SRecently I was fortunate to have the opportunity to speak to
the Canyon Ridge Middle School PTA members at their monthly meeting Specifically I was asked to speak on Anxiety and Children As a parent of a middle school child and therapy provider for adolescents this subject is more than relevant to me
In my therapy practice and in my home I see the increasing social and academic pressures for our kids Recently a poll conducted by NPR along with the Robert Wood Johnson Foundation and the Harvard School of Public Health found that nearly 40 of parents said their high school kids are experiencing a lot of stress from school Specifically longer homework sessions high stakes testing and more competitive college admissions are the drivers In my own school district and community the options for extracurriculars are countless and the sizeable academic menu of choices is growing
I realize that my children are incredibly fortunate to have these amazing opportunities I also realize that with great opportunity comes great responsibility How can I help my child find the balance between exposure to these resources and the ability to manage their schedules without creating an environment that is overwhelming and anxiety provoking
These are questions of course that families have to answer for themselves Just as individual families have varying priorities children vary on the types of schedules they can manage
To be sure adolescence is an anxious time As a parent we can play a key role in how our children experience anxiety Some things we can do as parents arebull Recognizeandhelpchildrenidentifyanxiousfeelingsbull Helpchildrendevelopcopingstrategiesbull Expresspositiveandrealisticexpectationsbull Validatefeelingsbutdonrsquotempowerthembull Encouragetoleranceofanxiousfeelingsbull ModelhealthywaysofmanagingstressandanxietyBy helping our children to identify and express their anxious
feelings we can begin to address concerns Like all uncomfortable emotions anxiety is a normal response that serves a purpose Helping our children label and express their feelings can be anxiety reducing Learning to recognize express tolerate and manage anxiety is a priceless skill As role models for our children coping with our own stress and anxiety can serve as a valuable example
Parents can model good stress management by making sleep nutrition and exercise a priority We can learn to recognize our personal limits for demands of our time and resources and set healthy boundaries And when indicated we can utilize professional resources like school counselors or independent therapists
If you think your child may have an issue with anxiety there are several symptoms you may notice Behaviorally teens may engage in unhealthy coping behaviors such as drug and alcohol use They may limit or avoid activities in an attempt to reduce anxiety Physically
Adolescents and Anxietyteens may report sleep disturbances headaches stomach aches or symptoms such as racing heart dizziness and muscle tension You may notice that symptoms are consistently very intense and go on for a long period of time Contacting a professional therapist can be of value in assessing the severity of the anxiety and determining if counseling is indicated
As parents we are instrumental in helping our children become healthy resilient individuals By setting realistic expectations and helping our children to prioritize their schedules we can teach them to set healthy limits and not over extend themselves We can teach them to tolerate and manage their own anxiety And when necessary we can seek out professional help

Use the below information to determine what gardening tasks you want to accomplish this month
PlanningWhen purchasing bedding annuals this spring choose properly
grown plants with good color Buy plants with well-developed root systems that are vigorous but not too large for their pots Plants that bloom in the pack are often root bound and can be set back for several weeks after being transplanted Plants not yet in bloom will actually bloom sooner be better established and grow faster
For hot-weather color select one of the following Gloriosa Daisy Madagascar Periwinkle Ornamental Peppers Mexican Zinnia or Amaranthus Josephs Coat Plan to attract hummingbirds to your garden this year by planting red or orange flowers Monarda (common names beebalm horsemint Oswego tea and bergamot) is a good perennial plant that thrives in sun and provides nectar for these small birds

Dr RJ Jackson
For years orthodontics have been a ldquoreactiverdquo profession Parents would slowly watch their childrsquos teeth go from bad to worse while waiting for the baby teeth to fall out then finally visit an orthodontist for a set of braces Today orthodontics has evolved into a ldquoprevention focusedrdquo profession Longterm research studies have proven that preventing a problem from occurring is better than allowing the problem to occur and then fixing it The American Association of Orthodontics (AAO) and the American Board of Orthodontics (ABO) both recommend every child have an evaluation no later than age 7 Timing is of the essence because the ability to correct certain problems greatly diminishes as the child develops over time
Early detection and correction can also prevent future extractions improve self-esteem decrease the overall cost of orthodontic treatment and decrease the chances of dental complications later on Another benefit of early correction includes
improved stability which decreases the likelihood of teeth shifting back to the original improper position later in life
Although there are many benefits to treatment at an early age it is not recommended for every child Children treated unnecessarily can negatively impact their dental health and increase the total overall expenses for parentsThis is one reason it is imperative for parents to choose a board-certified orthodontist for treatment A board certified orthodontist has demonstrated competence and is held accountable for their work by the American Board of Orthodontics Only 1 out of 3 orthodontists are board-certified so do not make the mistake of assuming an orthodontist holds this recognition Your board-certified orthodontist will inform you if the time is right for orthodontic treatment
Contact RJ Orthodontics today to schedule a complimentary examination with a board-certified orthodontist

Ranch Record
Much change will take place in Steiner Ranch later this month on April 19th homeowners will vote in seven new board members to the Steiner Ranch Master Association (SRMA) making it an all homeowner run board for the first time Two days later two new members will be voted in to serve on the Steiner Ranch Residential Association (SRROA) Board
As a result of developer transition the election process for the SRMA will represent the biggest change in how homeowners elect members to the board As has been shared in the past voting districts have been created in order to ensure that all areas of the SRMA are represented on the board Although much information has been provided over the past several months regarding the upcoming elections I believe there is no such thing as over communication Should you have any questions please do not hesitate to contact the Association Office
Below are key terms all homeowners should be familiar with when voting
Quorum ndash A quorum is the minimum number of property owners that must be present or by submitted proxy for the annual meeting to be valid The minimum number needed for a valid annual meeting for the Master Association is 370 members and 70 for the Residential Owners Association
Proxy - A proxy is the written authorization that allows one person to appoint another (the proxy holder) to vote on his or her behalf Itrsquos important to note that if yoursquore not interested in voting for a candidate the proxy can be submitted just for the purpose of obtaining a quorum
On-line voting ndash The annual meeting packet will contain a link to the on-line voting website which will direct the property owner to a ballot with the eligible candidates
Voting in person ndash Paper ballots will be available and collected at the annual meeting
I encourage all homeowners to exercise their civic duty and vote All board members are elected to represent and protect the best interest of the community while maintaining the value of jointly owned assets In short the role of the Board is to protect and increase property values by successfully operating the Association maintaining common property and enforcing Steiner Ranch governing documents
I look forward to our upcoming elections and working with our new and returning board members

Submitted by Tom Henry Community Relations at Longhorn Village April is not only National
Food Month but indeed celebrates a plethora of glorious favorite provisions of the masses including but not limited to National Brussels Sprouts and Cabbage Month National BLT Sandwich Month Cranberries and Gooseberries Pecans Garlic Soft Pretzels Grilled Cheese Sandwiches Soy Foods Tomatillos and Asian Pears Fresh Florida Tomatoesndash the delicacies commemorated in the month of April alone could provide endless nourishment for the most refined of palates In recognition of this great bounty of naturersquos goodness my quest to do justice by this article begins and ends with one of the finest purveyors of exquisite cuisine in our neighborhood
Chef de Cuisine Joel Jones of Longhorn Village has the creative genius and savoir faire worthy of Michelin Star recognition (in my very humble opinion ndash I just rented the movie ldquoBurntrdquo with my wife so I know about these things) Joel worked his way through the industry starting at age 13 washing dishes at a small pizza house in
Illinois He was hired by Omni Hotels and quickly ascended from Line Cook to Executive Sous-chef in just 4 years
His th i r s t for the complex ability to not just please but delight the vast variety of culinary explorers living within Longhorn Village is quite
simply unparalleledWith a ldquoPlow to Platerdquo philosophy dining selections are prepared
with only the finest local ingredients whenever possible Having full control of the menu Chef Joel selects his produce from local growers who deliver 6 days a week Beef selections are Prime Grade from local ranchers and Spirits are offered from Texas distilleries Fresh fish deliveries are made 3 days per week and most offerings come from The Gulf including the shrimp and lobster
April is National Food Month

Of course the creative genius within inspires him to constantly reach for new and exotic delights including elk antelope crab-stuffed f lounder Northern Pacif ic halibut and Maine lobster
He offers his staff the same opportunities to explore their creative talents by encouraging them to prepare samplings for the team to experience and if they make the grade will be presented on the menu Each evening the fine dining crew assembles for a ldquofamily mealrdquo tasting of the selections of the night (yep just like in the movie)
Chef Joel also embraces critique from The Culinary Committee which is made up of Longhorn Village residents who offer feedback at regular monthly meetings All resident input and comments whether positive or negative are read daily to staff members and are published to The Culinary Council for review
Dietary restrictions preferences or choices are known on an individual basis to allow each resident to enjoy the full dining experience without having to explain or make special requests
Another closely held philosophy spread throughout his team is an emphasis on full flavor portion controlled options that allow for a greater individual choice plated in small or regular sizes
I have had the great pleasure of working with Chef Joel and presenting his distinguished
works of art at business meetings all over the Austin area It has become common for my clients to ask when I schedule a lunch meeting if it will be prepared by our Chef again I often tell him he makes my work not only easier but that there is a sense of pride in knowing I will be greeted at the door with anticipation and a sense of admiration knowing my presentation will be remembered for his creative talent
A good cook is a peculiar gift of the gods He must be a perfect creature from the brain to the palate from the palate to the fingerrsquos end ndash Walter Savage Landor

News You Can Use
Submitted by Shelley Coleman MA LPC-SRecently I was fortunate to have the opportunity to speak to
the Canyon Ridge Middle School PTA members at their monthly meeting Specifically I was asked to speak on Anxiety and Children As a parent of a middle school child and therapy provider for adolescents this subject is more than relevant to me
In my therapy practice and in my home I see the increasing social and academic pressures for our kids Recently a poll conducted by NPR along with the Robert Wood Johnson Foundation and the Harvard School of Public Health found that nearly 40 of parents said their high school kids are experiencing a lot of stress from school Specifically longer homework sessions high stakes testing and more competitive college admissions are the drivers In my own school district and community the options for extracurriculars are countless and the sizeable academic menu of choices is growing
I realize that my children are incredibly fortunate to have these amazing opportunities I also realize that with great opportunity comes great responsibility How can I help my child find the balance between exposure to these resources and the ability to manage their schedules without creating an environment that is overwhelming and anxiety provoking
These are questions of course that families have to answer for themselves Just as individual families have varying priorities children vary on the types of schedules they can manage
To be sure adolescence is an anxious time As a parent we can play a key role in how our children experience anxiety Some things we can do as parents arebull Recognizeandhelpchildrenidentifyanxiousfeelingsbull Helpchildrendevelopcopingstrategiesbull Expresspositiveandrealisticexpectationsbull Validatefeelingsbutdonrsquotempowerthembull Encouragetoleranceofanxiousfeelingsbull ModelhealthywaysofmanagingstressandanxietyBy helping our children to identify and express their anxious
feelings we can begin to address concerns Like all uncomfortable emotions anxiety is a normal response that serves a purpose Helping our children label and express their feelings can be anxiety reducing Learning to recognize express tolerate and manage anxiety is a priceless skill As role models for our children coping with our own stress and anxiety can serve as a valuable example
Parents can model good stress management by making sleep nutrition and exercise a priority We can learn to recognize our personal limits for demands of our time and resources and set healthy boundaries And when indicated we can utilize professional resources like school counselors or independent therapists
If you think your child may have an issue with anxiety there are several symptoms you may notice Behaviorally teens may engage in unhealthy coping behaviors such as drug and alcohol use They may limit or avoid activities in an attempt to reduce anxiety Physically
Adolescents and Anxietyteens may report sleep disturbances headaches stomach aches or symptoms such as racing heart dizziness and muscle tension You may notice that symptoms are consistently very intense and go on for a long period of time Contacting a professional therapist can be of value in assessing the severity of the anxiety and determining if counseling is indicated
As parents we are instrumental in helping our children become healthy resilient individuals By setting realistic expectations and helping our children to prioritize their schedules we can teach them to set healthy limits and not over extend themselves We can teach them to tolerate and manage their own anxiety And when necessary we can seek out professional help

Dr RJ Jackson
For years orthodontics have been a ldquoreactiverdquo profession Parents would slowly watch their childrsquos teeth go from bad to worse while waiting for the baby teeth to fall out then finally visit an orthodontist for a set of braces Today orthodontics has evolved into a ldquoprevention focusedrdquo profession Longterm research studies have proven that preventing a problem from occurring is better than allowing the problem to occur and then fixing it The American Association of Orthodontics (AAO) and the American Board of Orthodontics (ABO) both recommend every child have an evaluation no later than age 7 Timing is of the essence because the ability to correct certain problems greatly diminishes as the child develops over time
Early detection and correction can also prevent future extractions improve self-esteem decrease the overall cost of orthodontic treatment and decrease the chances of dental complications later on Another benefit of early correction includes
improved stability which decreases the likelihood of teeth shifting back to the original improper position later in life
Although there are many benefits to treatment at an early age it is not recommended for every child Children treated unnecessarily can negatively impact their dental health and increase the total overall expenses for parentsThis is one reason it is imperative for parents to choose a board-certified orthodontist for treatment A board certified orthodontist has demonstrated competence and is held accountable for their work by the American Board of Orthodontics Only 1 out of 3 orthodontists are board-certified so do not make the mistake of assuming an orthodontist holds this recognition Your board-certified orthodontist will inform you if the time is right for orthodontic treatment
Contact RJ Orthodontics today to schedule a complimentary examination with a board-certified orthodontist

Submitted by Tom Henry Community Relations at Longhorn Village April is not only National
Food Month but indeed celebrates a plethora of glorious favorite provisions of the masses including but not limited to National Brussels Sprouts and Cabbage Month National BLT Sandwich Month Cranberries and Gooseberries Pecans Garlic Soft Pretzels Grilled Cheese Sandwiches Soy Foods Tomatillos and Asian Pears Fresh Florida Tomatoesndash the delicacies commemorated in the month of April alone could provide endless nourishment for the most refined of palates In recognition of this great bounty of naturersquos goodness my quest to do justice by this article begins and ends with one of the finest purveyors of exquisite cuisine in our neighborhood
Chef de Cuisine Joel Jones of Longhorn Village has the creative genius and savoir faire worthy of Michelin Star recognition (in my very humble opinion ndash I just rented the movie ldquoBurntrdquo with my wife so I know about these things) Joel worked his way through the industry starting at age 13 washing dishes at a small pizza house in
Illinois He was hired by Omni Hotels and quickly ascended from Line Cook to Executive Sous-chef in just 4 years
His th i r s t for the complex ability to not just please but delight the vast variety of culinary explorers living within Longhorn Village is quite
simply unparalleledWith a ldquoPlow to Platerdquo philosophy dining selections are prepared
with only the finest local ingredients whenever possible Having full control of the menu Chef Joel selects his produce from local growers who deliver 6 days a week Beef selections are Prime Grade from local ranchers and Spirits are offered from Texas distilleries Fresh fish deliveries are made 3 days per week and most offerings come from The Gulf including the shrimp and lobster
April is National Food Month

Of course the creative genius within inspires him to constantly reach for new and exotic delights including elk antelope crab-stuffed f lounder Northern Pacif ic halibut and Maine lobster
He offers his staff the same opportunities to explore their creative talents by encouraging them to prepare samplings for the team to experience and if they make the grade will be presented on the menu Each evening the fine dining crew assembles for a ldquofamily mealrdquo tasting of the selections of the night (yep just like in the movie)
Chef Joel also embraces critique from The Culinary Committee which is made up of Longhorn Village residents who offer feedback at regular monthly meetings All resident input and comments whether positive or negative are read daily to staff members and are published to The Culinary Council for review
Dietary restrictions preferences or choices are known on an individual basis to allow each resident to enjoy the full dining experience without having to explain or make special requests
Another closely held philosophy spread throughout his team is an emphasis on full flavor portion controlled options that allow for a greater individual choice plated in small or regular sizes
I have had the great pleasure of working with Chef Joel and presenting his distinguished
works of art at business meetings all over the Austin area It has become common for my clients to ask when I schedule a lunch meeting if it will be prepared by our Chef again I often tell him he makes my work not only easier but that there is a sense of pride in knowing I will be greeted at the door with anticipation and a sense of admiration knowing my presentation will be remembered for his creative talent
A good cook is a peculiar gift of the gods He must be a perfect creature from the brain to the palate from the palate to the fingerrsquos end ndash Walter Savage Landor

Submitted by Shelley Coleman MA LPC-SRecently I was fortunate to have the opportunity to speak to
the Canyon Ridge Middle School PTA members at their monthly meeting Specifically I was asked to speak on Anxiety and Children As a parent of a middle school child and therapy provider for adolescents this subject is more than relevant to me
In my therapy practice and in my home I see the increasing social and academic pressures for our kids Recently a poll conducted by NPR along with the Robert Wood Johnson Foundation and the Harvard School of Public Health found that nearly 40 of parents said their high school kids are experiencing a lot of stress from school Specifically longer homework sessions high stakes testing and more competitive college admissions are the drivers In my own school district and community the options for extracurriculars are countless and the sizeable academic menu of choices is growing
I realize that my children are incredibly fortunate to have these amazing opportunities I also realize that with great opportunity comes great responsibility How can I help my child find the balance between exposure to these resources and the ability to manage their schedules without creating an environment that is overwhelming and anxiety provoking
These are questions of course that families have to answer for themselves Just as individual families have varying priorities children vary on the types of schedules they can manage
To be sure adolescence is an anxious time As a parent we can play a key role in how our children experience anxiety Some things we can do as parents arebull Recognizeandhelpchildrenidentifyanxiousfeelingsbull Helpchildrendevelopcopingstrategiesbull Expresspositiveandrealisticexpectationsbull Validatefeelingsbutdonrsquotempowerthembull Encouragetoleranceofanxiousfeelingsbull ModelhealthywaysofmanagingstressandanxietyBy helping our children to identify and express their anxious
feelings we can begin to address concerns Like all uncomfortable emotions anxiety is a normal response that serves a purpose Helping our children label and express their feelings can be anxiety reducing Learning to recognize express tolerate and manage anxiety is a priceless skill As role models for our children coping with our own stress and anxiety can serve as a valuable example
Parents can model good stress management by making sleep nutrition and exercise a priority We can learn to recognize our personal limits for demands of our time and resources and set healthy boundaries And when indicated we can utilize professional resources like school counselors or independent therapists
If you think your child may have an issue with anxiety there are several symptoms you may notice Behaviorally teens may engage in unhealthy coping behaviors such as drug and alcohol use They may limit or avoid activities in an attempt to reduce anxiety Physically
Adolescents and Anxietyteens may report sleep disturbances headaches stomach aches or symptoms such as racing heart dizziness and muscle tension You may notice that symptoms are consistently very intense and go on for a long period of time Contacting a professional therapist can be of value in assessing the severity of the anxiety and determining if counseling is indicated
As parents we are instrumental in helping our children become healthy resilient individuals By setting realistic expectations and helping our children to prioritize their schedules we can teach them to set healthy limits and not over extend themselves We can teach them to tolerate and manage their own anxiety And when necessary we can seek out professional help

Use the below information to determine what gardening tasks you want to accomplish this month
PlanningWhen purchasing bedding annuals this spring choose properly
grown plants with good color Buy plants with well-developed root systems that are vigorous but not too large for their pots Plants that bloom in the pack are often root bound and can be set back for several weeks after being transplanted Plants not yet in bloom will actually bloom sooner be better established and grow faster
For hot-weather color select one of the following Gloriosa Daisy Madagascar Periwinkle Ornamental Peppers Mexican Zinnia or Amaranthus Josephs Coat Plan to attract hummingbirds to your garden this year by planting red or orange flowers Monarda (common names beebalm horsemint Oswego tea and bergamot) is a good perennial plant that thrives in sun and provides nectar for these small birds

For years orthodontics have been a ldquoreactiverdquo profession Parents would slowly watch their childrsquos teeth go from bad to worse while waiting for the baby teeth to fall out then finally visit an orthodontist for a set of braces Today orthodontics has evolved into a ldquoprevention focusedrdquo profession Longterm research studies have proven that preventing a problem from occurring is better than allowing the problem to occur and then fixing it The American Association of Orthodontics (AAO) and the American Board of Orthodontics (ABO) both recommend every child have an evaluation no later than age 7 Timing is of the essence because the ability to correct certain problems greatly diminishes as the child develops over time
Early detection and correction can also prevent future extractions improve self-esteem decrease the overall cost of orthodontic treatment and decrease the chances of dental complications later on Another benefit of early correction includes
improved stability which decreases the likelihood of teeth shifting back to the original improper position later in life
Although there are many benefits to treatment at an early age it is not recommended for every child Children treated unnecessarily can negatively impact their dental health and increase the total overall expenses for parentsThis is one reason it is imperative for parents to choose a board-certified orthodontist for treatment A board certified orthodontist has demonstrated competence and is held accountable for their work by the American Board of Orthodontics Only 1 out of 3 orthodontists are board-certified so do not make the mistake of assuming an orthodontist holds this recognition Your board-certified orthodontist will inform you if the time is right for orthodontic treatment
Contact RJ Orthodontics today to schedule a complimentary examination with a board-certified orthodontist

Submitted by Tom Henry Community Relations at Longhorn Village April is not only National
Food Month but indeed celebrates a plethora of glorious favorite provisions of the masses including but not limited to National Brussels Sprouts and Cabbage Month National BLT Sandwich Month Cranberries and Gooseberries Pecans Garlic Soft Pretzels Grilled Cheese Sandwiches Soy Foods Tomatillos and Asian Pears Fresh Florida Tomatoesndash the delicacies commemorated in the month of April alone could provide endless nourishment for the most refined of palates In recognition of this great bounty of naturersquos goodness my quest to do justice by this article begins and ends with one of the finest purveyors of exquisite cuisine in our neighborhood
Chef de Cuisine Joel Jones of Longhorn Village has the creative genius and savoir faire worthy of Michelin Star recognition (in my very humble opinion ndash I just rented the movie ldquoBurntrdquo with my wife so I know about these things) Joel worked his way through the industry starting at age 13 washing dishes at a small pizza house in
Illinois He was hired by Omni Hotels and quickly ascended from Line Cook to Executive Sous-chef in just 4 years
His th i r s t for the complex ability to not just please but delight the vast variety of culinary explorers living within Longhorn Village is quite
simply unparalleledWith a ldquoPlow to Platerdquo philosophy dining selections are prepared
with only the finest local ingredients whenever possible Having full control of the menu Chef Joel selects his produce from local growers who deliver 6 days a week Beef selections are Prime Grade from local ranchers and Spirits are offered from Texas distilleries Fresh fish deliveries are made 3 days per week and most offerings come from The Gulf including the shrimp and lobster
April is National Food Month

Of course the creative genius within inspires him to constantly reach for new and exotic delights including elk antelope crab-stuffed f lounder Northern Pacif ic halibut and Maine lobster
He offers his staff the same opportunities to explore their creative talents by encouraging them to prepare samplings for the team to experience and if they make the grade will be presented on the menu Each evening the fine dining crew assembles for a ldquofamily mealrdquo tasting of the selections of the night (yep just like in the movie)
Chef Joel also embraces critique from The Culinary Committee which is made up of Longhorn Village residents who offer feedback at regular monthly meetings All resident input and comments whether positive or negative are read daily to staff members and are published to The Culinary Council for review
Dietary restrictions preferences or choices are known on an individual basis to allow each resident to enjoy the full dining experience without having to explain or make special requests
Another closely held philosophy spread throughout his team is an emphasis on full flavor portion controlled options that allow for a greater individual choice plated in small or regular sizes
I have had the great pleasure of working with Chef Joel and presenting his distinguished
works of art at business meetings all over the Austin area It has become common for my clients to ask when I schedule a lunch meeting if it will be prepared by our Chef again I often tell him he makes my work not only easier but that there is a sense of pride in knowing I will be greeted at the door with anticipation and a sense of admiration knowing my presentation will be remembered for his creative talent
A good cook is a peculiar gift of the gods He must be a perfect creature from the brain to the palate from the palate to the fingerrsquos end ndash Walter Savage Landor

News You Can Use
Submitted by Shelley Coleman MA LPC-SRecently I was fortunate to have the opportunity to speak to
the Canyon Ridge Middle School PTA members at their monthly meeting Specifically I was asked to speak on Anxiety and Children As a parent of a middle school child and therapy provider for adolescents this subject is more than relevant to me
In my therapy practice and in my home I see the increasing social and academic pressures for our kids Recently a poll conducted by NPR along with the Robert Wood Johnson Foundation and the Harvard School of Public Health found that nearly 40 of parents said their high school kids are experiencing a lot of stress from school Specifically longer homework sessions high stakes testing and more competitive college admissions are the drivers In my own school district and community the options for extracurriculars are countless and the sizeable academic menu of choices is growing
I realize that my children are incredibly fortunate to have these amazing opportunities I also realize that with great opportunity comes great responsibility How can I help my child find the balance between exposure to these resources and the ability to manage their schedules without creating an environment that is overwhelming and anxiety provoking
These are questions of course that families have to answer for themselves Just as individual families have varying priorities children vary on the types of schedules they can manage
To be sure adolescence is an anxious time As a parent we can play a key role in how our children experience anxiety Some things we can do as parents arebull Recognizeandhelpchildrenidentifyanxiousfeelingsbull Helpchildrendevelopcopingstrategiesbull Expresspositiveandrealisticexpectationsbull Validatefeelingsbutdonrsquotempowerthembull Encouragetoleranceofanxiousfeelingsbull ModelhealthywaysofmanagingstressandanxietyBy helping our children to identify and express their anxious
feelings we can begin to address concerns Like all uncomfortable emotions anxiety is a normal response that serves a purpose Helping our children label and express their feelings can be anxiety reducing Learning to recognize express tolerate and manage anxiety is a priceless skill As role models for our children coping with our own stress and anxiety can serve as a valuable example
Parents can model good stress management by making sleep nutrition and exercise a priority We can learn to recognize our personal limits for demands of our time and resources and set healthy boundaries And when indicated we can utilize professional resources like school counselors or independent therapists
If you think your child may have an issue with anxiety there are several symptoms you may notice Behaviorally teens may engage in unhealthy coping behaviors such as drug and alcohol use They may limit or avoid activities in an attempt to reduce anxiety Physically
Adolescents and Anxietyteens may report sleep disturbances headaches stomach aches or symptoms such as racing heart dizziness and muscle tension You may notice that symptoms are consistently very intense and go on for a long period of time Contacting a professional therapist can be of value in assessing the severity of the anxiety and determining if counseling is indicated
As parents we are instrumental in helping our children become healthy resilient individuals By setting realistic expectations and helping our children to prioritize their schedules we can teach them to set healthy limits and not over extend themselves We can teach them to tolerate and manage their own anxiety And when necessary we can seek out professional help

Dr RJ Jackson
For years orthodontics have been a ldquoreactiverdquo profession Parents would slowly watch their childrsquos teeth go from bad to worse while waiting for the baby teeth to fall out then finally visit an orthodontist for a set of braces Today orthodontics has evolved into a ldquoprevention focusedrdquo profession Longterm research studies have proven that preventing a problem from occurring is better than allowing the problem to occur and then fixing it The American Association of Orthodontics (AAO) and the American Board of Orthodontics (ABO) both recommend every child have an evaluation no later than age 7 Timing is of the essence because the ability to correct certain problems greatly diminishes as the child develops over time
Early detection and correction can also prevent future extractions improve self-esteem decrease the overall cost of orthodontic treatment and decrease the chances of dental complications later on Another benefit of early correction includes
improved stability which decreases the likelihood of teeth shifting back to the original improper position later in life
Although there are many benefits to treatment at an early age it is not recommended for every child Children treated unnecessarily can negatively impact their dental health and increase the total overall expenses for parentsThis is one reason it is imperative for parents to choose a board-certified orthodontist for treatment A board certified orthodontist has demonstrated competence and is held accountable for their work by the American Board of Orthodontics Only 1 out of 3 orthodontists are board-certified so do not make the mistake of assuming an orthodontist holds this recognition Your board-certified orthodontist will inform you if the time is right for orthodontic treatment
Contact RJ Orthodontics today to schedule a complimentary examination with a board-certified orthodontist

Submitted by Tom Henry Community Relations at Longhorn Village April is not only National
Food Month but indeed celebrates a plethora of glorious favorite provisions of the masses including but not limited to National Brussels Sprouts and Cabbage Month National BLT Sandwich Month Cranberries and Gooseberries Pecans Garlic Soft Pretzels Grilled Cheese Sandwiches Soy Foods Tomatillos and Asian Pears Fresh Florida Tomatoesndash the delicacies commemorated in the month of April alone could provide endless nourishment for the most refined of palates In recognition of this great bounty of naturersquos goodness my quest to do justice by this article begins and ends with one of the finest purveyors of exquisite cuisine in our neighborhood
Chef de Cuisine Joel Jones of Longhorn Village has the creative genius and savoir faire worthy of Michelin Star recognition (in my very humble opinion ndash I just rented the movie ldquoBurntrdquo with my wife so I know about these things) Joel worked his way through the industry starting at age 13 washing dishes at a small pizza house in
Illinois He was hired by Omni Hotels and quickly ascended from Line Cook to Executive Sous-chef in just 4 years
His th i r s t for the complex ability to not just please but delight the vast variety of culinary explorers living within Longhorn Village is quite
simply unparalleledWith a ldquoPlow to Platerdquo philosophy dining selections are prepared
with only the finest local ingredients whenever possible Having full control of the menu Chef Joel selects his produce from local growers who deliver 6 days a week Beef selections are Prime Grade from local ranchers and Spirits are offered from Texas distilleries Fresh fish deliveries are made 3 days per week and most offerings come from The Gulf including the shrimp and lobster
April is National Food Month

Of course the creative genius within inspires him to constantly reach for new and exotic delights including elk antelope crab-stuffed f lounder Northern Pacif ic halibut and Maine lobster
He offers his staff the same opportunities to explore their creative talents by encouraging them to prepare samplings for the team to experience and if they make the grade will be presented on the menu Each evening the fine dining crew assembles for a ldquofamily mealrdquo tasting of the selections of the night (yep just like in the movie)
Chef Joel also embraces critique from The Culinary Committee which is made up of Longhorn Village residents who offer feedback at regular monthly meetings All resident input and comments whether positive or negative are read daily to staff members and are published to The Culinary Council for review
Dietary restrictions preferences or choices are known on an individual basis to allow each resident to enjoy the full dining experience without having to explain or make special requests
Another closely held philosophy spread throughout his team is an emphasis on full flavor portion controlled options that allow for a greater individual choice plated in small or regular sizes
I have had the great pleasure of working with Chef Joel and presenting his distinguished
works of art at business meetings all over the Austin area It has become common for my clients to ask when I schedule a lunch meeting if it will be prepared by our Chef again I often tell him he makes my work not only easier but that there is a sense of pride in knowing I will be greeted at the door with anticipation and a sense of admiration knowing my presentation will be remembered for his creative talent
A good cook is a peculiar gift of the gods He must be a perfect creature from the brain to the palate from the palate to the fingerrsquos end ndash Walter Savage Landor

Submitted by Shelley Coleman MA LPC-SRecently I was fortunate to have the opportunity to speak to
the Canyon Ridge Middle School PTA members at their monthly meeting Specifically I was asked to speak on Anxiety and Children As a parent of a middle school child and therapy provider for adolescents this subject is more than relevant to me
In my therapy practice and in my home I see the increasing social and academic pressures for our kids Recently a poll conducted by NPR along with the Robert Wood Johnson Foundation and the Harvard School of Public Health found that nearly 40 of parents said their high school kids are experiencing a lot of stress from school Specifically longer homework sessions high stakes testing and more competitive college admissions are the drivers In my own school district and community the options for extracurriculars are countless and the sizeable academic menu of choices is growing
I realize that my children are incredibly fortunate to have these amazing opportunities I also realize that with great opportunity comes great responsibility How can I help my child find the balance between exposure to these resources and the ability to manage their schedules without creating an environment that is overwhelming and anxiety provoking
These are questions of course that families have to answer for themselves Just as individual families have varying priorities children vary on the types of schedules they can manage
To be sure adolescence is an anxious time As a parent we can play a key role in how our children experience anxiety Some things we can do as parents arebull Recognizeandhelpchildrenidentifyanxiousfeelingsbull Helpchildrendevelopcopingstrategiesbull Expresspositiveandrealisticexpectationsbull Validatefeelingsbutdonrsquotempowerthembull Encouragetoleranceofanxiousfeelingsbull ModelhealthywaysofmanagingstressandanxietyBy helping our children to identify and express their anxious
feelings we can begin to address concerns Like all uncomfortable emotions anxiety is a normal response that serves a purpose Helping our children label and express their feelings can be anxiety reducing Learning to recognize express tolerate and manage anxiety is a priceless skill As role models for our children coping with our own stress and anxiety can serve as a valuable example
Parents can model good stress management by making sleep nutrition and exercise a priority We can learn to recognize our personal limits for demands of our time and resources and set healthy boundaries And when indicated we can utilize professional resources like school counselors or independent therapists
If you think your child may have an issue with anxiety there are several symptoms you may notice Behaviorally teens may engage in unhealthy coping behaviors such as drug and alcohol use They may limit or avoid activities in an attempt to reduce anxiety Physically
Adolescents and Anxietyteens may report sleep disturbances headaches stomach aches or symptoms such as racing heart dizziness and muscle tension You may notice that symptoms are consistently very intense and go on for a long period of time Contacting a professional therapist can be of value in assessing the severity of the anxiety and determining if counseling is indicated
As parents we are instrumental in helping our children become healthy resilient individuals By setting realistic expectations and helping our children to prioritize their schedules we can teach them to set healthy limits and not over extend themselves We can teach them to tolerate and manage their own anxiety And when necessary we can seek out professional help

April Gardening TipsOffered by WeekendGardenerNet
Use the below information to determine what gardening tasks you want to accomplish this month
PlanningWhen purchasing bedding annuals this spring choose properly
grown plants with good color Buy plants with well-developed root systems that are vigorous but not too large for their pots Plants that bloom in the pack are often root bound and can be set back for several weeks after being transplanted Plants not yet in bloom will actually bloom sooner be better established and grow faster
For hot-weather color select one of the following Gloriosa Daisy Madagascar Periwinkle Ornamental Peppers Mexican Zinnia or Amaranthus Josephs Coat Plan to attract hummingbirds to your garden this year by planting red or orange flowers Monarda (common names beebalm horsemint Oswego tea and bergamot) is a good perennial plant that thrives in sun and provides nectar for these small birds

For years orthodontics have been a ldquoreactiverdquo profession Parents would slowly watch their childrsquos teeth go from bad to worse while waiting for the baby teeth to fall out then finally visit an orthodontist for a set of braces Today orthodontics has evolved into a ldquoprevention focusedrdquo profession Longterm research studies have proven that preventing a problem from occurring is better than allowing the problem to occur and then fixing it The American Association of Orthodontics (AAO) and the American Board of Orthodontics (ABO) both recommend every child have an evaluation no later than age 7 Timing is of the essence because the ability to correct certain problems greatly diminishes as the child develops over time
Early detection and correction can also prevent future extractions improve self-esteem decrease the overall cost of orthodontic treatment and decrease the chances of dental complications later on Another benefit of early correction includes
improved stability which decreases the likelihood of teeth shifting back to the original improper position later in life
Although there are many benefits to treatment at an early age it is not recommended for every child Children treated unnecessarily can negatively impact their dental health and increase the total overall expenses for parentsThis is one reason it is imperative for parents to choose a board-certified orthodontist for treatment A board certified orthodontist has demonstrated competence and is held accountable for their work by the American Board of Orthodontics Only 1 out of 3 orthodontists are board-certified so do not make the mistake of assuming an orthodontist holds this recognition Your board-certified orthodontist will inform you if the time is right for orthodontic treatment
Contact RJ Orthodontics today to schedule a complimentary examination with a board-certified orthodontist

Submitted by Tom Henry Community Relations at Longhorn Village April is not only National
Food Month but indeed celebrates a plethora of glorious favorite provisions of the masses including but not limited to National Brussels Sprouts and Cabbage Month National BLT Sandwich Month Cranberries and Gooseberries Pecans Garlic Soft Pretzels Grilled Cheese Sandwiches Soy Foods Tomatillos and Asian Pears Fresh Florida Tomatoesndash the delicacies commemorated in the month of April alone could provide endless nourishment for the most refined of palates In recognition of this great bounty of naturersquos goodness my quest to do justice by this article begins and ends with one of the finest purveyors of exquisite cuisine in our neighborhood
Chef de Cuisine Joel Jones of Longhorn Village has the creative genius and savoir faire worthy of Michelin Star recognition (in my very humble opinion ndash I just rented the movie ldquoBurntrdquo with my wife so I know about these things) Joel worked his way through the industry starting at age 13 washing dishes at a small pizza house in
Illinois He was hired by Omni Hotels and quickly ascended from Line Cook to Executive Sous-chef in just 4 years
His th i r s t for the complex ability to not just please but delight the vast variety of culinary explorers living within Longhorn Village is quite
simply unparalleledWith a ldquoPlow to Platerdquo philosophy dining selections are prepared
with only the finest local ingredients whenever possible Having full control of the menu Chef Joel selects his produce from local growers who deliver 6 days a week Beef selections are Prime Grade from local ranchers and Spirits are offered from Texas distilleries Fresh fish deliveries are made 3 days per week and most offerings come from The Gulf including the shrimp and lobster
April is National Food Month

Of course the creative genius within inspires him to constantly reach for new and exotic delights including elk antelope crab-stuffed f lounder Northern Pacif ic halibut and Maine lobster
He offers his staff the same opportunities to explore their creative talents by encouraging them to prepare samplings for the team to experience and if they make the grade will be presented on the menu Each evening the fine dining crew assembles for a ldquofamily mealrdquo tasting of the selections of the night (yep just like in the movie)
Chef Joel also embraces critique from The Culinary Committee which is made up of Longhorn Village residents who offer feedback at regular monthly meetings All resident input and comments whether positive or negative are read daily to staff members and are published to The Culinary Council for review
Dietary restrictions preferences or choices are known on an individual basis to allow each resident to enjoy the full dining experience without having to explain or make special requests
Another closely held philosophy spread throughout his team is an emphasis on full flavor portion controlled options that allow for a greater individual choice plated in small or regular sizes
I have had the great pleasure of working with Chef Joel and presenting his distinguished
works of art at business meetings all over the Austin area It has become common for my clients to ask when I schedule a lunch meeting if it will be prepared by our Chef again I often tell him he makes my work not only easier but that there is a sense of pride in knowing I will be greeted at the door with anticipation and a sense of admiration knowing my presentation will be remembered for his creative talent
A good cook is a peculiar gift of the gods He must be a perfect creature from the brain to the palate from the palate to the fingerrsquos end ndash Walter Savage Landor

News You Can Use
Submitted by Shelley Coleman MA LPC-SRecently I was fortunate to have the opportunity to speak to
the Canyon Ridge Middle School PTA members at their monthly meeting Specifically I was asked to speak on Anxiety and Children As a parent of a middle school child and therapy provider for adolescents this subject is more than relevant to me
In my therapy practice and in my home I see the increasing social and academic pressures for our kids Recently a poll conducted by NPR along with the Robert Wood Johnson Foundation and the Harvard School of Public Health found that nearly 40 of parents said their high school kids are experiencing a lot of stress from school Specifically longer homework sessions high stakes testing and more competitive college admissions are the drivers In my own school district and community the options for extracurriculars are countless and the sizeable academic menu of choices is growing
I realize that my children are incredibly fortunate to have these amazing opportunities I also realize that with great opportunity comes great responsibility How can I help my child find the balance between exposure to these resources and the ability to manage their schedules without creating an environment that is overwhelming and anxiety provoking
These are questions of course that families have to answer for themselves Just as individual families have varying priorities children vary on the types of schedules they can manage
To be sure adolescence is an anxious time As a parent we can play a key role in how our children experience anxiety Some things we can do as parents arebull Recognizeandhelpchildrenidentifyanxiousfeelingsbull Helpchildrendevelopcopingstrategiesbull Expresspositiveandrealisticexpectationsbull Validatefeelingsbutdonrsquotempowerthembull Encouragetoleranceofanxiousfeelingsbull ModelhealthywaysofmanagingstressandanxietyBy helping our children to identify and express their anxious
feelings we can begin to address concerns Like all uncomfortable emotions anxiety is a normal response that serves a purpose Helping our children label and express their feelings can be anxiety reducing Learning to recognize express tolerate and manage anxiety is a priceless skill As role models for our children coping with our own stress and anxiety can serve as a valuable example
Parents can model good stress management by making sleep nutrition and exercise a priority We can learn to recognize our personal limits for demands of our time and resources and set healthy boundaries And when indicated we can utilize professional resources like school counselors or independent therapists
If you think your child may have an issue with anxiety there are several symptoms you may notice Behaviorally teens may engage in unhealthy coping behaviors such as drug and alcohol use They may limit or avoid activities in an attempt to reduce anxiety Physically
Adolescents and Anxietyteens may report sleep disturbances headaches stomach aches or symptoms such as racing heart dizziness and muscle tension You may notice that symptoms are consistently very intense and go on for a long period of time Contacting a professional therapist can be of value in assessing the severity of the anxiety and determining if counseling is indicated
As parents we are instrumental in helping our children become healthy resilient individuals By setting realistic expectations and helping our children to prioritize their schedules we can teach them to set healthy limits and not over extend themselves We can teach them to tolerate and manage their own anxiety And when necessary we can seek out professional help

Dr RJ Jackson
For years orthodontics have been a ldquoreactiverdquo profession Parents would slowly watch their childrsquos teeth go from bad to worse while waiting for the baby teeth to fall out then finally visit an orthodontist for a set of braces Today orthodontics has evolved into a ldquoprevention focusedrdquo profession Longterm research studies have proven that preventing a problem from occurring is better than allowing the problem to occur and then fixing it The American Association of Orthodontics (AAO) and the American Board of Orthodontics (ABO) both recommend every child have an evaluation no later than age 7 Timing is of the essence because the ability to correct certain problems greatly diminishes as the child develops over time
Early detection and correction can also prevent future extractions improve self-esteem decrease the overall cost of orthodontic treatment and decrease the chances of dental complications later on Another benefit of early correction includes
improved stability which decreases the likelihood of teeth shifting back to the original improper position later in life
Although there are many benefits to treatment at an early age it is not recommended for every child Children treated unnecessarily can negatively impact their dental health and increase the total overall expenses for parentsThis is one reason it is imperative for parents to choose a board-certified orthodontist for treatment A board certified orthodontist has demonstrated competence and is held accountable for their work by the American Board of Orthodontics Only 1 out of 3 orthodontists are board-certified so do not make the mistake of assuming an orthodontist holds this recognition Your board-certified orthodontist will inform you if the time is right for orthodontic treatment
Contact RJ Orthodontics today to schedule a complimentary examination with a board-certified orthodontist

Submitted by Tom Henry Community Relations at Longhorn Village April is not only National
Food Month but indeed celebrates a plethora of glorious favorite provisions of the masses including but not limited to National Brussels Sprouts and Cabbage Month National BLT Sandwich Month Cranberries and Gooseberries Pecans Garlic Soft Pretzels Grilled Cheese Sandwiches Soy Foods Tomatillos and Asian Pears Fresh Florida Tomatoesndash the delicacies commemorated in the month of April alone could provide endless nourishment for the most refined of palates In recognition of this great bounty of naturersquos goodness my quest to do justice by this article begins and ends with one of the finest purveyors of exquisite cuisine in our neighborhood
Chef de Cuisine Joel Jones of Longhorn Village has the creative genius and savoir faire worthy of Michelin Star recognition (in my very humble opinion ndash I just rented the movie ldquoBurntrdquo with my wife so I know about these things) Joel worked his way through the industry starting at age 13 washing dishes at a small pizza house in
Illinois He was hired by Omni Hotels and quickly ascended from Line Cook to Executive Sous-chef in just 4 years
His th i r s t for the complex ability to not just please but delight the vast variety of culinary explorers living within Longhorn Village is quite
simply unparalleledWith a ldquoPlow to Platerdquo philosophy dining selections are prepared
with only the finest local ingredients whenever possible Having full control of the menu Chef Joel selects his produce from local growers who deliver 6 days a week Beef selections are Prime Grade from local ranchers and Spirits are offered from Texas distilleries Fresh fish deliveries are made 3 days per week and most offerings come from The Gulf including the shrimp and lobster
April is National Food Month

Of course the creative genius within inspires him to constantly reach for new and exotic delights including elk antelope crab-stuffed f lounder Northern Pacif ic halibut and Maine lobster
He offers his staff the same opportunities to explore their creative talents by encouraging them to prepare samplings for the team to experience and if they make the grade will be presented on the menu Each evening the fine dining crew assembles for a ldquofamily mealrdquo tasting of the selections of the night (yep just like in the movie)
Chef Joel also embraces critique from The Culinary Committee which is made up of Longhorn Village residents who offer feedback at regular monthly meetings All resident input and comments whether positive or negative are read daily to staff members and are published to The Culinary Council for review
Dietary restrictions preferences or choices are known on an individual basis to allow each resident to enjoy the full dining experience without having to explain or make special requests
Another closely held philosophy spread throughout his team is an emphasis on full flavor portion controlled options that allow for a greater individual choice plated in small or regular sizes
I have had the great pleasure of working with Chef Joel and presenting his distinguished
works of art at business meetings all over the Austin area It has become common for my clients to ask when I schedule a lunch meeting if it will be prepared by our Chef again I often tell him he makes my work not only easier but that there is a sense of pride in knowing I will be greeted at the door with anticipation and a sense of admiration knowing my presentation will be remembered for his creative talent
A good cook is a peculiar gift of the gods He must be a perfect creature from the brain to the palate from the palate to the fingerrsquos end ndash Walter Savage Landor

News You Can Use
Submitted by Shelley Coleman MA LPC-SRecently I was fortunate to have the opportunity to speak to
the Canyon Ridge Middle School PTA members at their monthly meeting Specifically I was asked to speak on Anxiety and Children As a parent of a middle school child and therapy provider for adolescents this subject is more than relevant to me
In my therapy practice and in my home I see the increasing social and academic pressures for our kids Recently a poll conducted by NPR along with the Robert Wood Johnson Foundation and the Harvard School of Public Health found that nearly 40 of parents said their high school kids are experiencing a lot of stress from school Specifically longer homework sessions high stakes testing and more competitive college admissions are the drivers In my own school district and community the options for extracurriculars are countless and the sizeable academic menu of choices is growing
I realize that my children are incredibly fortunate to have these amazing opportunities I also realize that with great opportunity comes great responsibility How can I help my child find the balance between exposure to these resources and the ability to manage their schedules without creating an environment that is overwhelming and anxiety provoking
These are questions of course that families have to answer for themselves Just as individual families have varying priorities children vary on the types of schedules they can manage
To be sure adolescence is an anxious time As a parent we can play a key role in how our children experience anxiety Some things we can do as parents arebull Recognizeandhelpchildrenidentifyanxiousfeelingsbull Helpchildrendevelopcopingstrategiesbull Expresspositiveandrealisticexpectationsbull Validatefeelingsbutdonrsquotempowerthembull Encouragetoleranceofanxiousfeelingsbull ModelhealthywaysofmanagingstressandanxietyBy helping our children to identify and express their anxious
feelings we can begin to address concerns Like all uncomfortable emotions anxiety is a normal response that serves a purpose Helping our children label and express their feelings can be anxiety reducing Learning to recognize express tolerate and manage anxiety is a priceless skill As role models for our children coping with our own stress and anxiety can serve as a valuable example
Parents can model good stress management by making sleep nutrition and exercise a priority We can learn to recognize our personal limits for demands of our time and resources and set healthy boundaries And when indicated we can utilize professional resources like school counselors or independent therapists
If you think your child may have an issue with anxiety there are several symptoms you may notice Behaviorally teens may engage in unhealthy coping behaviors such as drug and alcohol use They may limit or avoid activities in an attempt to reduce anxiety Physically
Adolescents and Anxietyteens may report sleep disturbances headaches stomach aches or symptoms such as racing heart dizziness and muscle tension You may notice that symptoms are consistently very intense and go on for a long period of time Contacting a professional therapist can be of value in assessing the severity of the anxiety and determining if counseling is indicated
As parents we are instrumental in helping our children become healthy resilient individuals By setting realistic expectations and helping our children to prioritize their schedules we can teach them to set healthy limits and not over extend themselves We can teach them to tolerate and manage their own anxiety And when necessary we can seek out professional help

April Gardening TipsOffered by WeekendGardenerNet
Use the below information to determine what gardening tasks you want to accomplish this month
PlanningWhen purchasing bedding annuals this spring choose properly
grown plants with good color Buy plants with well-developed root systems that are vigorous but not too large for their pots Plants that bloom in the pack are often root bound and can be set back for several weeks after being transplanted Plants not yet in bloom will actually bloom sooner be better established and grow faster
For hot-weather color select one of the following Gloriosa Daisy Madagascar Periwinkle Ornamental Peppers Mexican Zinnia or Amaranthus Josephs Coat Plan to attract hummingbirds to your garden this year by planting red or orange flowers Monarda (common names beebalm horsemint Oswego tea and bergamot) is a good perennial plant that thrives in sun and provides nectar for these small birds

Dr RJ Jackson
For years orthodontics have been a ldquoreactiverdquo profession Parents would slowly watch their childrsquos teeth go from bad to worse while waiting for the baby teeth to fall out then finally visit an orthodontist for a set of braces Today orthodontics has evolved into a ldquoprevention focusedrdquo profession Longterm research studies have proven that preventing a problem from occurring is better than allowing the problem to occur and then fixing it The American Association of Orthodontics (AAO) and the American Board of Orthodontics (ABO) both recommend every child have an evaluation no later than age 7 Timing is of the essence because the ability to correct certain problems greatly diminishes as the child develops over time
Early detection and correction can also prevent future extractions improve self-esteem decrease the overall cost of orthodontic treatment and decrease the chances of dental complications later on Another benefit of early correction includes
improved stability which decreases the likelihood of teeth shifting back to the original improper position later in life
Although there are many benefits to treatment at an early age it is not recommended for every child Children treated unnecessarily can negatively impact their dental health and increase the total overall expenses for parentsThis is one reason it is imperative for parents to choose a board-certified orthodontist for treatment A board certified orthodontist has demonstrated competence and is held accountable for their work by the American Board of Orthodontics Only 1 out of 3 orthodontists are board-certified so do not make the mistake of assuming an orthodontist holds this recognition Your board-certified orthodontist will inform you if the time is right for orthodontic treatment
Contact RJ Orthodontics today to schedule a complimentary examination with a board-certified orthodontist

Submitted by Tom Henry Community Relations at Longhorn Village April is not only National
Food Month but indeed celebrates a plethora of glorious favorite provisions of the masses including but not limited to National Brussels Sprouts and Cabbage Month National BLT Sandwich Month Cranberries and Gooseberries Pecans Garlic Soft Pretzels Grilled Cheese Sandwiches Soy Foods Tomatillos and Asian Pears Fresh Florida Tomatoesndash the delicacies commemorated in the month of April alone could provide endless nourishment for the most refined of palates In recognition of this great bounty of naturersquos goodness my quest to do justice by this article begins and ends with one of the finest purveyors of exquisite cuisine in our neighborhood
Chef de Cuisine Joel Jones of Longhorn Village has the creative genius and savoir faire worthy of Michelin Star recognition (in my very humble opinion ndash I just rented the movie ldquoBurntrdquo with my wife so I know about these things) Joel worked his way through the industry starting at age 13 washing dishes at a small pizza house in
Illinois He was hired by Omni Hotels and quickly ascended from Line Cook to Executive Sous-chef in just 4 years
His th i r s t for the complex ability to not just please but delight the vast variety of culinary explorers living within Longhorn Village is quite
simply unparalleledWith a ldquoPlow to Platerdquo philosophy dining selections are prepared
with only the finest local ingredients whenever possible Having full control of the menu Chef Joel selects his produce from local growers who deliver 6 days a week Beef selections are Prime Grade from local ranchers and Spirits are offered from Texas distilleries Fresh fish deliveries are made 3 days per week and most offerings come from The Gulf including the shrimp and lobster
April is National Food Month

Of course the creative genius within inspires him to constantly reach for new and exotic delights including elk antelope crab-stuffed f lounder Northern Pacif ic halibut and Maine lobster
He offers his staff the same opportunities to explore their creative talents by encouraging them to prepare samplings for the team to experience and if they make the grade will be presented on the menu Each evening the fine dining crew assembles for a ldquofamily mealrdquo tasting of the selections of the night (yep just like in the movie)
Chef Joel also embraces critique from The Culinary Committee which is made up of Longhorn Village residents who offer feedback at regular monthly meetings All resident input and comments whether positive or negative are read daily to staff members and are published to The Culinary Council for review
Dietary restrictions preferences or choices are known on an individual basis to allow each resident to enjoy the full dining experience without having to explain or make special requests
Another closely held philosophy spread throughout his team is an emphasis on full flavor portion controlled options that allow for a greater individual choice plated in small or regular sizes
I have had the great pleasure of working with Chef Joel and presenting his distinguished
works of art at business meetings all over the Austin area It has become common for my clients to ask when I schedule a lunch meeting if it will be prepared by our Chef again I often tell him he makes my work not only easier but that there is a sense of pride in knowing I will be greeted at the door with anticipation and a sense of admiration knowing my presentation will be remembered for his creative talent
A good cook is a peculiar gift of the gods He must be a perfect creature from the brain to the palate from the palate to the fingerrsquos end ndash Walter Savage Landor

Submitted by Shelley Coleman MA LPC-SRecently I was fortunate to have the opportunity to speak to
the Canyon Ridge Middle School PTA members at their monthly meeting Specifically I was asked to speak on Anxiety and Children As a parent of a middle school child and therapy provider for adolescents this subject is more than relevant to me
In my therapy practice and in my home I see the increasing social and academic pressures for our kids Recently a poll conducted by NPR along with the Robert Wood Johnson Foundation and the Harvard School of Public Health found that nearly 40 of parents said their high school kids are experiencing a lot of stress from school Specifically longer homework sessions high stakes testing and more competitive college admissions are the drivers In my own school district and community the options for extracurriculars are countless and the sizeable academic menu of choices is growing
I realize that my children are incredibly fortunate to have these amazing opportunities I also realize that with great opportunity comes great responsibility How can I help my child find the balance between exposure to these resources and the ability to manage their schedules without creating an environment that is overwhelming and anxiety provoking
These are questions of course that families have to answer for themselves Just as individual families have varying priorities children vary on the types of schedules they can manage
To be sure adolescence is an anxious time As a parent we can play a key role in how our children experience anxiety Some things we can do as parents arebull Recognizeandhelpchildrenidentifyanxiousfeelingsbull Helpchildrendevelopcopingstrategiesbull Expresspositiveandrealisticexpectationsbull Validatefeelingsbutdonrsquotempowerthembull Encouragetoleranceofanxiousfeelingsbull ModelhealthywaysofmanagingstressandanxietyBy helping our children to identify and express their anxious
feelings we can begin to address concerns Like all uncomfortable emotions anxiety is a normal response that serves a purpose Helping our children label and express their feelings can be anxiety reducing Learning to recognize express tolerate and manage anxiety is a priceless skill As role models for our children coping with our own stress and anxiety can serve as a valuable example
Parents can model good stress management by making sleep nutrition and exercise a priority We can learn to recognize our personal limits for demands of our time and resources and set healthy boundaries And when indicated we can utilize professional resources like school counselors or independent therapists
If you think your child may have an issue with anxiety there are several symptoms you may notice Behaviorally teens may engage in unhealthy coping behaviors such as drug and alcohol use They may limit or avoid activities in an attempt to reduce anxiety Physically
Adolescents and Anxietyteens may report sleep disturbances headaches stomach aches or symptoms such as racing heart dizziness and muscle tension You may notice that symptoms are consistently very intense and go on for a long period of time Contacting a professional therapist can be of value in assessing the severity of the anxiety and determining if counseling is indicated
As parents we are instrumental in helping our children become healthy resilient individuals By setting realistic expectations and helping our children to prioritize their schedules we can teach them to set healthy limits and not over extend themselves We can teach them to tolerate and manage their own anxiety And when necessary we can seek out professional help

Use the below information to determine what gardening tasks you want to accomplish this month
PlanningWhen purchasing bedding annuals this spring choose properly
grown plants with good color Buy plants with well-developed root systems that are vigorous but not too large for their pots Plants that bloom in the pack are often root bound and can be set back for several weeks after being transplanted Plants not yet in bloom will actually bloom sooner be better established and grow faster
For hot-weather color select one of the following Gloriosa Daisy Madagascar Periwinkle Ornamental Peppers Mexican Zinnia or Amaranthus Josephs Coat Plan to attract hummingbirds to your garden this year by planting red or orange flowers Monarda (common names beebalm horsemint Oswego tea and bergamot) is a good perennial plant that thrives in sun and provides nectar for these small birds

For years orthodontics have been a ldquoreactiverdquo profession Parents would slowly watch their childrsquos teeth go from bad to worse while waiting for the baby teeth to fall out then finally visit an orthodontist for a set of braces Today orthodontics has evolved into a ldquoprevention focusedrdquo profession Longterm research studies have proven that preventing a problem from occurring is better than allowing the problem to occur and then fixing it The American Association of Orthodontics (AAO) and the American Board of Orthodontics (ABO) both recommend every child have an evaluation no later than age 7 Timing is of the essence because the ability to correct certain problems greatly diminishes as the child develops over time
Early detection and correction can also prevent future extractions improve self-esteem decrease the overall cost of orthodontic treatment and decrease the chances of dental complications later on Another benefit of early correction includes
improved stability which decreases the likelihood of teeth shifting back to the original improper position later in life
Although there are many benefits to treatment at an early age it is not recommended for every child Children treated unnecessarily can negatively impact their dental health and increase the total overall expenses for parentsThis is one reason it is imperative for parents to choose a board-certified orthodontist for treatment A board certified orthodontist has demonstrated competence and is held accountable for their work by the American Board of Orthodontics Only 1 out of 3 orthodontists are board-certified so do not make the mistake of assuming an orthodontist holds this recognition Your board-certified orthodontist will inform you if the time is right for orthodontic treatment
Contact RJ Orthodontics today to schedule a complimentary examination with a board-certified orthodontist

Submitted by Tom Henry Community Relations at Longhorn Village April is not only National
Food Month but indeed celebrates a plethora of glorious favorite provisions of the masses including but not limited to National Brussels Sprouts and Cabbage Month National BLT Sandwich Month Cranberries and Gooseberries Pecans Garlic Soft Pretzels Grilled Cheese Sandwiches Soy Foods Tomatillos and Asian Pears Fresh Florida Tomatoesndash the delicacies commemorated in the month of April alone could provide endless nourishment for the most refined of palates In recognition of this great bounty of naturersquos goodness my quest to do justice by this article begins and ends with one of the finest purveyors of exquisite cuisine in our neighborhood
Chef de Cuisine Joel Jones of Longhorn Village has the creative genius and savoir faire worthy of Michelin Star recognition (in my very humble opinion ndash I just rented the movie ldquoBurntrdquo with my wife so I know about these things) Joel worked his way through the industry starting at age 13 washing dishes at a small pizza house in
Illinois He was hired by Omni Hotels and quickly ascended from Line Cook to Executive Sous-chef in just 4 years
His th i r s t for the complex ability to not just please but delight the vast variety of culinary explorers living within Longhorn Village is quite
simply unparalleledWith a ldquoPlow to Platerdquo philosophy dining selections are prepared
with only the finest local ingredients whenever possible Having full control of the menu Chef Joel selects his produce from local growers who deliver 6 days a week Beef selections are Prime Grade from local ranchers and Spirits are offered from Texas distilleries Fresh fish deliveries are made 3 days per week and most offerings come from The Gulf including the shrimp and lobster
April is National Food Month

Of course the creative genius within inspires him to constantly reach for new and exotic delights including elk antelope crab-stuffed f lounder Northern Pacif ic halibut and Maine lobster
He offers his staff the same opportunities to explore their creative talents by encouraging them to prepare samplings for the team to experience and if they make the grade will be presented on the menu Each evening the fine dining crew assembles for a ldquofamily mealrdquo tasting of the selections of the night (yep just like in the movie)
Chef Joel also embraces critique from The Culinary Committee which is made up of Longhorn Village residents who offer feedback at regular monthly meetings All resident input and comments whether positive or negative are read daily to staff members and are published to The Culinary Council for review
Dietary restrictions preferences or choices are known on an individual basis to allow each resident to enjoy the full dining experience without having to explain or make special requests
Another closely held philosophy spread throughout his team is an emphasis on full flavor portion controlled options that allow for a greater individual choice plated in small or regular sizes
I have had the great pleasure of working with Chef Joel and presenting his distinguished
works of art at business meetings all over the Austin area It has become common for my clients to ask when I schedule a lunch meeting if it will be prepared by our Chef again I often tell him he makes my work not only easier but that there is a sense of pride in knowing I will be greeted at the door with anticipation and a sense of admiration knowing my presentation will be remembered for his creative talent
A good cook is a peculiar gift of the gods He must be a perfect creature from the brain to the palate from the palate to the fingerrsquos end ndash Walter Savage Landor

News You Can Use
Submitted by Shelley Coleman MA LPC-SRecently I was fortunate to have the opportunity to speak to
the Canyon Ridge Middle School PTA members at their monthly meeting Specifically I was asked to speak on Anxiety and Children As a parent of a middle school child and therapy provider for adolescents this subject is more than relevant to me
In my therapy practice and in my home I see the increasing social and academic pressures for our kids Recently a poll conducted by NPR along with the Robert Wood Johnson Foundation and the Harvard School of Public Health found that nearly 40 of parents said their high school kids are experiencing a lot of stress from school Specifically longer homework sessions high stakes testing and more competitive college admissions are the drivers In my own school district and community the options for extracurriculars are countless and the sizeable academic menu of choices is growing
I realize that my children are incredibly fortunate to have these amazing opportunities I also realize that with great opportunity comes great responsibility How can I help my child find the balance between exposure to these resources and the ability to manage their schedules without creating an environment that is overwhelming and anxiety provoking
These are questions of course that families have to answer for themselves Just as individual families have varying priorities children vary on the types of schedules they can manage
To be sure adolescence is an anxious time As a parent we can play a key role in how our children experience anxiety Some things we can do as parents arebull Recognizeandhelpchildrenidentifyanxiousfeelingsbull Helpchildrendevelopcopingstrategiesbull Expresspositiveandrealisticexpectationsbull Validatefeelingsbutdonrsquotempowerthembull Encouragetoleranceofanxiousfeelingsbull ModelhealthywaysofmanagingstressandanxietyBy helping our children to identify and express their anxious
feelings we can begin to address concerns Like all uncomfortable emotions anxiety is a normal response that serves a purpose Helping our children label and express their feelings can be anxiety reducing Learning to recognize express tolerate and manage anxiety is a priceless skill As role models for our children coping with our own stress and anxiety can serve as a valuable example
Parents can model good stress management by making sleep nutrition and exercise a priority We can learn to recognize our personal limits for demands of our time and resources and set healthy boundaries And when indicated we can utilize professional resources like school counselors or independent therapists
If you think your child may have an issue with anxiety there are several symptoms you may notice Behaviorally teens may engage in unhealthy coping behaviors such as drug and alcohol use They may limit or avoid activities in an attempt to reduce anxiety Physically
Adolescents and Anxietyteens may report sleep disturbances headaches stomach aches or symptoms such as racing heart dizziness and muscle tension You may notice that symptoms are consistently very intense and go on for a long period of time Contacting a professional therapist can be of value in assessing the severity of the anxiety and determining if counseling is indicated
As parents we are instrumental in helping our children become healthy resilient individuals By setting realistic expectations and helping our children to prioritize their schedules we can teach them to set healthy limits and not over extend themselves We can teach them to tolerate and manage their own anxiety And when necessary we can seek out professional help

PlanningWhen purchasing bedding annuals this spring choose properly
grown plants with good color Buy plants with well-developed root systems that are vigorous but not too large for their pots Plants that bloom in the pack are often root bound and can be set back for several weeks after being transplanted Plants not yet in bloom will actually bloom sooner be better established and grow faster
For hot-weather color select one of the following Gloriosa Daisy Madagascar Periwinkle Ornamental Peppers Mexican Zinnia or Amaranthus Josephs Coat Plan to attract hummingbirds to your garden this year by planting red or orange flowers Monarda (common names beebalm horsemint Oswego tea and bergamot) is a good perennial plant that thrives in sun and provides nectar for these small birds

Dr RJ Jackson
For years orthodontics have been a ldquoreactiverdquo profession Parents would slowly watch their childrsquos teeth go from bad to worse while waiting for the baby teeth to fall out then finally visit an orthodontist for a set of braces Today orthodontics has evolved into a ldquoprevention focusedrdquo profession Longterm research studies have proven that preventing a problem from occurring is better than allowing the problem to occur and then fixing it The American Association of Orthodontics (AAO) and the American Board of Orthodontics (ABO) both recommend every child have an evaluation no later than age 7 Timing is of the essence because the ability to correct certain problems greatly diminishes as the child develops over time
Early detection and correction can also prevent future extractions improve self-esteem decrease the overall cost of orthodontic treatment and decrease the chances of dental complications later on Another benefit of early correction includes
improved stability which decreases the likelihood of teeth shifting back to the original improper position later in life
Although there are many benefits to treatment at an early age it is not recommended for every child Children treated unnecessarily can negatively impact their dental health and increase the total overall expenses for parentsThis is one reason it is imperative for parents to choose a board-certified orthodontist for treatment A board certified orthodontist has demonstrated competence and is held accountable for their work by the American Board of Orthodontics Only 1 out of 3 orthodontists are board-certified so do not make the mistake of assuming an orthodontist holds this recognition Your board-certified orthodontist will inform you if the time is right for orthodontic treatment
Contact RJ Orthodontics today to schedule a complimentary examination with a board-certified orthodontist

Submitted by Tom Henry Community Relations at Longhorn Village April is not only National
Food Month but indeed celebrates a plethora of glorious favorite provisions of the masses including but not limited to National Brussels Sprouts and Cabbage Month National BLT Sandwich Month Cranberries and Gooseberries Pecans Garlic Soft Pretzels Grilled Cheese Sandwiches Soy Foods Tomatillos and Asian Pears Fresh Florida Tomatoesndash the delicacies commemorated in the month of April alone could provide endless nourishment for the most refined of palates In recognition of this great bounty of naturersquos goodness my quest to do justice by this article begins and ends with one of the finest purveyors of exquisite cuisine in our neighborhood
Chef de Cuisine Joel Jones of Longhorn Village has the creative genius and savoir faire worthy of Michelin Star recognition (in my very humble opinion ndash I just rented the movie ldquoBurntrdquo with my wife so I know about these things) Joel worked his way through the industry starting at age 13 washing dishes at a small pizza house in
Illinois He was hired by Omni Hotels and quickly ascended from Line Cook to Executive Sous-chef in just 4 years
His th i r s t for the complex ability to not just please but delight the vast variety of culinary explorers living within Longhorn Village is quite
simply unparalleledWith a ldquoPlow to Platerdquo philosophy dining selections are prepared
with only the finest local ingredients whenever possible Having full control of the menu Chef Joel selects his produce from local growers who deliver 6 days a week Beef selections are Prime Grade from local ranchers and Spirits are offered from Texas distilleries Fresh fish deliveries are made 3 days per week and most offerings come from The Gulf including the shrimp and lobster
April is National Food Month

Of course the creative genius within inspires him to constantly reach for new and exotic delights including elk antelope crab-stuffed f lounder Northern Pacif ic halibut and Maine lobster
He offers his staff the same opportunities to explore their creative talents by encouraging them to prepare samplings for the team to experience and if they make the grade will be presented on the menu Each evening the fine dining crew assembles for a ldquofamily mealrdquo tasting of the selections of the night (yep just like in the movie)
Chef Joel also embraces critique from The Culinary Committee which is made up of Longhorn Village residents who offer feedback at regular monthly meetings All resident input and comments whether positive or negative are read daily to staff members and are published to The Culinary Council for review
Dietary restrictions preferences or choices are known on an individual basis to allow each resident to enjoy the full dining experience without having to explain or make special requests
Another closely held philosophy spread throughout his team is an emphasis on full flavor portion controlled options that allow for a greater individual choice plated in small or regular sizes
I have had the great pleasure of working with Chef Joel and presenting his distinguished
works of art at business meetings all over the Austin area It has become common for my clients to ask when I schedule a lunch meeting if it will be prepared by our Chef again I often tell him he makes my work not only easier but that there is a sense of pride in knowing I will be greeted at the door with anticipation and a sense of admiration knowing my presentation will be remembered for his creative talent
A good cook is a peculiar gift of the gods He must be a perfect creature from the brain to the palate from the palate to the fingerrsquos end ndash Walter Savage Landor

News You Can Use
Submitted by Shelley Coleman MA LPC-SRecently I was fortunate to have the opportunity to speak to
the Canyon Ridge Middle School PTA members at their monthly meeting Specifically I was asked to speak on Anxiety and Children As a parent of a middle school child and therapy provider for adolescents this subject is more than relevant to me
In my therapy practice and in my home I see the increasing social and academic pressures for our kids Recently a poll conducted by NPR along with the Robert Wood Johnson Foundation and the Harvard School of Public Health found that nearly 40 of parents said their high school kids are experiencing a lot of stress from school Specifically longer homework sessions high stakes testing and more competitive college admissions are the drivers In my own school district and community the options for extracurriculars are countless and the sizeable academic menu of choices is growing
I realize that my children are incredibly fortunate to have these amazing opportunities I also realize that with great opportunity comes great responsibility How can I help my child find the balance between exposure to these resources and the ability to manage their schedules without creating an environment that is overwhelming and anxiety provoking
These are questions of course that families have to answer for themselves Just as individual families have varying priorities children vary on the types of schedules they can manage
To be sure adolescence is an anxious time As a parent we can play a key role in how our children experience anxiety Some things we can do as parents arebull Recognizeandhelpchildrenidentifyanxiousfeelingsbull Helpchildrendevelopcopingstrategiesbull Expresspositiveandrealisticexpectationsbull Validatefeelingsbutdonrsquotempowerthembull Encouragetoleranceofanxiousfeelingsbull ModelhealthywaysofmanagingstressandanxietyBy helping our children to identify and express their anxious
feelings we can begin to address concerns Like all uncomfortable emotions anxiety is a normal response that serves a purpose Helping our children label and express their feelings can be anxiety reducing Learning to recognize express tolerate and manage anxiety is a priceless skill As role models for our children coping with our own stress and anxiety can serve as a valuable example
Parents can model good stress management by making sleep nutrition and exercise a priority We can learn to recognize our personal limits for demands of our time and resources and set healthy boundaries And when indicated we can utilize professional resources like school counselors or independent therapists
If you think your child may have an issue with anxiety there are several symptoms you may notice Behaviorally teens may engage in unhealthy coping behaviors such as drug and alcohol use They may limit or avoid activities in an attempt to reduce anxiety Physically
Adolescents and Anxietyteens may report sleep disturbances headaches stomach aches or symptoms such as racing heart dizziness and muscle tension You may notice that symptoms are consistently very intense and go on for a long period of time Contacting a professional therapist can be of value in assessing the severity of the anxiety and determining if counseling is indicated
As parents we are instrumental in helping our children become healthy resilient individuals By setting realistic expectations and helping our children to prioritize their schedules we can teach them to set healthy limits and not over extend themselves We can teach them to tolerate and manage their own anxiety And when necessary we can seek out professional help

Dr RJ Jackson
For years orthodontics have been a ldquoreactiverdquo profession Parents would slowly watch their childrsquos teeth go from bad to worse while waiting for the baby teeth to fall out then finally visit an orthodontist for a set of braces Today orthodontics has evolved into a ldquoprevention focusedrdquo profession Longterm research studies have proven that preventing a problem from occurring is better than allowing the problem to occur and then fixing it The American Association of Orthodontics (AAO) and the American Board of Orthodontics (ABO) both recommend every child have an evaluation no later than age 7 Timing is of the essence because the ability to correct certain problems greatly diminishes as the child develops over time
Early detection and correction can also prevent future extractions improve self-esteem decrease the overall cost of orthodontic treatment and decrease the chances of dental complications later on Another benefit of early correction includes
improved stability which decreases the likelihood of teeth shifting back to the original improper position later in life
Although there are many benefits to treatment at an early age it is not recommended for every child Children treated unnecessarily can negatively impact their dental health and increase the total overall expenses for parentsThis is one reason it is imperative for parents to choose a board-certified orthodontist for treatment A board certified orthodontist has demonstrated competence and is held accountable for their work by the American Board of Orthodontics Only 1 out of 3 orthodontists are board-certified so do not make the mistake of assuming an orthodontist holds this recognition Your board-certified orthodontist will inform you if the time is right for orthodontic treatment
Contact RJ Orthodontics today to schedule a complimentary examination with a board-certified orthodontist

orthodontic specialist by age 7rdquo
Early treatment may prevent or intercept more serious problems from developing and may make treatment at a later age shorter and less complicated In some cases the orthodontist will be able to achieve results that may not be possible once the face and jaws have finished growing copy 2014 AAO
Problems to watch for in a growing child Early or late loss of baby teeth Difficulty in chewing or biting Grinding or clenching of the teeth Biting the cheek or roof of the mouth Jaws that shift or make sounds Open bite cross bite deep bite

Submitted by Tom Henry Community Relations at Longhorn Village April is not only National
Food Month but indeed celebrates a plethora of glorious favorite provisions of the masses including but not limited to National Brussels Sprouts and Cabbage Month National BLT Sandwich Month Cranberries and Gooseberries Pecans Garlic Soft Pretzels Grilled Cheese Sandwiches Soy Foods Tomatillos and Asian Pears Fresh Florida Tomatoesndash the delicacies commemorated in the month of April alone could provide endless nourishment for the most refined of palates In recognition of this great bounty of naturersquos goodness my quest to do justice by this article begins and ends with one of the finest purveyors of exquisite cuisine in our neighborhood
Chef de Cuisine Joel Jones of Longhorn Village has the creative genius and savoir faire worthy of Michelin Star recognition (in my very humble opinion ndash I just rented the movie ldquoBurntrdquo with my wife so I know about these things) Joel worked his way through the industry starting at age 13 washing dishes at a small pizza house in
Illinois He was hired by Omni Hotels and quickly ascended from Line Cook to Executive Sous-chef in just 4 years
His th i r s t for the complex ability to not just please but delight the vast variety of culinary explorers living within Longhorn Village is quite
simply unparalleledWith a ldquoPlow to Platerdquo philosophy dining selections are prepared
with only the finest local ingredients whenever possible Having full control of the menu Chef Joel selects his produce from local growers who deliver 6 days a week Beef selections are Prime Grade from local ranchers and Spirits are offered from Texas distilleries Fresh fish deliveries are made 3 days per week and most offerings come from The Gulf including the shrimp and lobster
April is National Food Month

Of course the creative genius within inspires him to constantly reach for new and exotic delights including elk antelope crab-stuffed f lounder Northern Pacif ic halibut and Maine lobster
He offers his staff the same opportunities to explore their creative talents by encouraging them to prepare samplings for the team to experience and if they make the grade will be presented on the menu Each evening the fine dining crew assembles for a ldquofamily mealrdquo tasting of the selections of the night (yep just like in the movie)
Chef Joel also embraces critique from The Culinary Committee which is made up of Longhorn Village residents who offer feedback at regular monthly meetings All resident input and comments whether positive or negative are read daily to staff members and are published to The Culinary Council for review
Dietary restrictions preferences or choices are known on an individual basis to allow each resident to enjoy the full dining experience without having to explain or make special requests
Another closely held philosophy spread throughout his team is an emphasis on full flavor portion controlled options that allow for a greater individual choice plated in small or regular sizes
I have had the great pleasure of working with Chef Joel and presenting his distinguished
works of art at business meetings all over the Austin area It has become common for my clients to ask when I schedule a lunch meeting if it will be prepared by our Chef again I often tell him he makes my work not only easier but that there is a sense of pride in knowing I will be greeted at the door with anticipation and a sense of admiration knowing my presentation will be remembered for his creative talent
A good cook is a peculiar gift of the gods He must be a perfect creature from the brain to the palate from the palate to the fingerrsquos end ndash Walter Savage Landor

News You Can Use
Submitted by Shelley Coleman MA LPC-SRecently I was fortunate to have the opportunity to speak to
the Canyon Ridge Middle School PTA members at their monthly meeting Specifically I was asked to speak on Anxiety and Children As a parent of a middle school child and therapy provider for adolescents this subject is more than relevant to me
In my therapy practice and in my home I see the increasing social and academic pressures for our kids Recently a poll conducted by NPR along with the Robert Wood Johnson Foundation and the Harvard School of Public Health found that nearly 40 of parents said their high school kids are experiencing a lot of stress from school Specifically longer homework sessions high stakes testing and more competitive college admissions are the drivers In my own school district and community the options for extracurriculars are countless and the sizeable academic menu of choices is growing
I realize that my children are incredibly fortunate to have these amazing opportunities I also realize that with great opportunity comes great responsibility How can I help my child find the balance between exposure to these resources and the ability to manage their schedules without creating an environment that is overwhelming and anxiety provoking
These are questions of course that families have to answer for themselves Just as individual families have varying priorities children vary on the types of schedules they can manage
To be sure adolescence is an anxious time As a parent we can play a key role in how our children experience anxiety Some things we can do as parents arebull Recognizeandhelpchildrenidentifyanxiousfeelingsbull Helpchildrendevelopcopingstrategiesbull Expresspositiveandrealisticexpectationsbull Validatefeelingsbutdonrsquotempowerthembull Encouragetoleranceofanxiousfeelingsbull ModelhealthywaysofmanagingstressandanxietyBy helping our children to identify and express their anxious
feelings we can begin to address concerns Like all uncomfortable emotions anxiety is a normal response that serves a purpose Helping our children label and express their feelings can be anxiety reducing Learning to recognize express tolerate and manage anxiety is a priceless skill As role models for our children coping with our own stress and anxiety can serve as a valuable example
Parents can model good stress management by making sleep nutrition and exercise a priority We can learn to recognize our personal limits for demands of our time and resources and set healthy boundaries And when indicated we can utilize professional resources like school counselors or independent therapists
If you think your child may have an issue with anxiety there are several symptoms you may notice Behaviorally teens may engage in unhealthy coping behaviors such as drug and alcohol use They may limit or avoid activities in an attempt to reduce anxiety Physically
Adolescents and Anxietyteens may report sleep disturbances headaches stomach aches or symptoms such as racing heart dizziness and muscle tension You may notice that symptoms are consistently very intense and go on for a long period of time Contacting a professional therapist can be of value in assessing the severity of the anxiety and determining if counseling is indicated
As parents we are instrumental in helping our children become healthy resilient individuals By setting realistic expectations and helping our children to prioritize their schedules we can teach them to set healthy limits and not over extend themselves We can teach them to tolerate and manage their own anxiety And when necessary we can seek out professional help

PlanningWhen purchasing bedding annuals this spring choose properly
grown plants with good color Buy plants with well-developed root systems that are vigorous but not too large for their pots Plants that bloom in the pack are often root bound and can be set back for several weeks after being transplanted Plants not yet in bloom will actually bloom sooner be better established and grow faster
For hot-weather color select one of the following Gloriosa Daisy Madagascar Periwinkle Ornamental Peppers Mexican Zinnia or Amaranthus Josephs Coat Plan to attract hummingbirds to your garden this year by planting red or orange flowers Monarda (common names beebalm horsemint Oswego tea and bergamot) is a good perennial plant that thrives in sun and provides nectar for these small birds

YOUR BRACES WITH DR JACKSON
Dr RJ Jackson
For years orthodontics have been a ldquoreactiverdquo profession Parents would slowly watch their childrsquos teeth go from bad to worse while waiting for the baby teeth to fall out then finally visit an orthodontist for a set of braces Today orthodontics has evolved into a ldquoprevention focusedrdquo profession Longterm research studies have proven that preventing a problem from occurring is better than allowing the problem to occur and then fixing it The American Association of Orthodontics (AAO) and the American Board of Orthodontics (ABO) both recommend every child have an evaluation no later than age 7 Timing is of the essence because the ability to correct certain problems greatly diminishes as the child develops over time
Early detection and correction can also prevent future extractions improve self-esteem decrease the overall cost of orthodontic treatment and decrease the chances of dental complications later on Another benefit of early correction includes
improved stability which decreases the likelihood of teeth shifting back to the original improper position later in life
Although there are many benefits to treatment at an early age it is not recommended for every child Children treated unnecessarily can negatively impact their dental health and increase the total overall expenses for parentsThis is one reason it is imperative for parents to choose a board-certified orthodontist for treatment A board certified orthodontist has demonstrated competence and is held accountable for their work by the American Board of Orthodontics Only 1 out of 3 orthodontists are board-certified so do not make the mistake of assuming an orthodontist holds this recognition Your board-certified orthodontist will inform you if the time is right for orthodontic treatment
Contact RJ Orthodontics today to schedule a complimentary examination with a board-certified orthodontist

Of course the creative genius within inspires him to constantly reach for new and exotic delights including elk antelope crab-stuffed f lounder Northern Pacif ic halibut and Maine lobster
He offers his staff the same opportunities to explore their creative talents by encouraging them to prepare samplings for the team to experience and if they make the grade will be presented on the menu Each evening the fine dining crew assembles for a ldquofamily mealrdquo tasting of the selections of the night (yep just like in the movie)
Chef Joel also embraces critique from The Culinary Committee which is made up of Longhorn Village residents who offer feedback at regular monthly meetings All resident input and comments whether positive or negative are read daily to staff members and are published to The Culinary Council for review
Dietary restrictions preferences or choices are known on an individual basis to allow each resident to enjoy the full dining experience without having to explain or make special requests
Another closely held philosophy spread throughout his team is an emphasis on full flavor portion controlled options that allow for a greater individual choice plated in small or regular sizes
I have had the great pleasure of working with Chef Joel and presenting his distinguished
works of art at business meetings all over the Austin area It has become common for my clients to ask when I schedule a lunch meeting if it will be prepared by our Chef again I often tell him he makes my work not only easier but that there is a sense of pride in knowing I will be greeted at the door with anticipation and a sense of admiration knowing my presentation will be remembered for his creative talent
A good cook is a peculiar gift of the gods He must be a perfect creature from the brain to the palate from the palate to the fingerrsquos end ndash Walter Savage Landor

Submitted by Shelley Coleman MA LPC-SRecently I was fortunate to have the opportunity to speak to
the Canyon Ridge Middle School PTA members at their monthly meeting Specifically I was asked to speak on Anxiety and Children As a parent of a middle school child and therapy provider for adolescents this subject is more than relevant to me
In my therapy practice and in my home I see the increasing social and academic pressures for our kids Recently a poll conducted by NPR along with the Robert Wood Johnson Foundation and the Harvard School of Public Health found that nearly 40 of parents said their high school kids are experiencing a lot of stress from school Specifically longer homework sessions high stakes testing and more competitive college admissions are the drivers In my own school district and community the options for extracurriculars are countless and the sizeable academic menu of choices is growing
I realize that my children are incredibly fortunate to have these amazing opportunities I also realize that with great opportunity comes great responsibility How can I help my child find the balance between exposure to these resources and the ability to manage their schedules without creating an environment that is overwhelming and anxiety provoking
These are questions of course that families have to answer for themselves Just as individual families have varying priorities children vary on the types of schedules they can manage
To be sure adolescence is an anxious time As a parent we can play a key role in how our children experience anxiety Some things we can do as parents arebull Recognizeandhelpchildrenidentifyanxiousfeelingsbull Helpchildrendevelopcopingstrategiesbull Expresspositiveandrealisticexpectationsbull Validatefeelingsbutdonrsquotempowerthembull Encouragetoleranceofanxiousfeelingsbull ModelhealthywaysofmanagingstressandanxietyBy helping our children to identify and express their anxious
feelings we can begin to address concerns Like all uncomfortable emotions anxiety is a normal response that serves a purpose Helping our children label and express their feelings can be anxiety reducing Learning to recognize express tolerate and manage anxiety is a priceless skill As role models for our children coping with our own stress and anxiety can serve as a valuable example
Parents can model good stress management by making sleep nutrition and exercise a priority We can learn to recognize our personal limits for demands of our time and resources and set healthy boundaries And when indicated we can utilize professional resources like school counselors or independent therapists
If you think your child may have an issue with anxiety there are several symptoms you may notice Behaviorally teens may engage in unhealthy coping behaviors such as drug and alcohol use They may limit or avoid activities in an attempt to reduce anxiety Physically
Adolescents and Anxietyteens may report sleep disturbances headaches stomach aches or symptoms such as racing heart dizziness and muscle tension You may notice that symptoms are consistently very intense and go on for a long period of time Contacting a professional therapist can be of value in assessing the severity of the anxiety and determining if counseling is indicated
As parents we are instrumental in helping our children become healthy resilient individuals By setting realistic expectations and helping our children to prioritize their schedules we can teach them to set healthy limits and not over extend themselves We can teach them to tolerate and manage their own anxiety And when necessary we can seek out professional help

Use the below information to determine what gardening tasks you want to accomplish this month
PlanningWhen purchasing bedding annuals this spring choose properly
grown plants with good color Buy plants with well-developed root systems that are vigorous but not too large for their pots Plants that bloom in the pack are often root bound and can be set back for several weeks after being transplanted Plants not yet in bloom will actually bloom sooner be better established and grow faster
For hot-weather color select one of the following Gloriosa Daisy Madagascar Periwinkle Ornamental Peppers Mexican Zinnia or Amaranthus Josephs Coat Plan to attract hummingbirds to your garden this year by planting red or orange flowers Monarda (common names beebalm horsemint Oswego tea and bergamot) is a good perennial plant that thrives in sun and provides nectar for these small birds

Dr RJ Jackson
For years orthodontics have been a ldquoreactiverdquo profession Parents would slowly watch their childrsquos teeth go from bad to worse while waiting for the baby teeth to fall out then finally visit an orthodontist for a set of braces Today orthodontics has evolved into a ldquoprevention focusedrdquo profession Longterm research studies have proven that preventing a problem from occurring is better than allowing the problem to occur and then fixing it The American Association of Orthodontics (AAO) and the American Board of Orthodontics (ABO) both recommend every child have an evaluation no later than age 7 Timing is of the essence because the ability to correct certain problems greatly diminishes as the child develops over time
Early detection and correction can also prevent future extractions improve self-esteem decrease the overall cost of orthodontic treatment and decrease the chances of dental complications later on Another benefit of early correction includes
improved stability which decreases the likelihood of teeth shifting back to the original improper position later in life
Although there are many benefits to treatment at an early age it is not recommended for every child Children treated unnecessarily can negatively impact their dental health and increase the total overall expenses for parentsThis is one reason it is imperative for parents to choose a board-certified orthodontist for treatment A board certified orthodontist has demonstrated competence and is held accountable for their work by the American Board of Orthodontics Only 1 out of 3 orthodontists are board-certified so do not make the mistake of assuming an orthodontist holds this recognition Your board-certified orthodontist will inform you if the time is right for orthodontic treatment
Contact RJ Orthodontics today to schedule a complimentary examination with a board-certified orthodontist

Submitted by Tom Henry Community Relations at Longhorn Village April is not only National
Food Month but indeed celebrates a plethora of glorious favorite provisions of the masses including but not limited to National Brussels Sprouts and Cabbage Month National BLT Sandwich Month Cranberries and Gooseberries Pecans Garlic Soft Pretzels Grilled Cheese Sandwiches Soy Foods Tomatillos and Asian Pears Fresh Florida Tomatoesndash the delicacies commemorated in the month of April alone could provide endless nourishment for the most refined of palates In recognition of this great bounty of naturersquos goodness my quest to do justice by this article begins and ends with one of the finest purveyors of exquisite cuisine in our neighborhood
Chef de Cuisine Joel Jones of Longhorn Village has the creative genius and savoir faire worthy of Michelin Star recognition (in my very humble opinion ndash I just rented the movie ldquoBurntrdquo with my wife so I know about these things) Joel worked his way through the industry starting at age 13 washing dishes at a small pizza house in
Illinois He was hired by Omni Hotels and quickly ascended from Line Cook to Executive Sous-chef in just 4 years
His th i r s t for the complex ability to not just please but delight the vast variety of culinary explorers living within Longhorn Village is quite
simply unparalleledWith a ldquoPlow to Platerdquo philosophy dining selections are prepared
with only the finest local ingredients whenever possible Having full control of the menu Chef Joel selects his produce from local growers who deliver 6 days a week Beef selections are Prime Grade from local ranchers and Spirits are offered from Texas distilleries Fresh fish deliveries are made 3 days per week and most offerings come from The Gulf including the shrimp and lobster
April is National Food Month

Of course the creative genius within inspires him to constantly reach for new and exotic delights including elk antelope crab-stuffed f lounder Northern Pacif ic halibut and Maine lobster
He offers his staff the same opportunities to explore their creative talents by encouraging them to prepare samplings for the team to experience and if they make the grade will be presented on the menu Each evening the fine dining crew assembles for a ldquofamily mealrdquo tasting of the selections of the night (yep just like in the movie)
Chef Joel also embraces critique from The Culinary Committee which is made up of Longhorn Village residents who offer feedback at regular monthly meetings All resident input and comments whether positive or negative are read daily to staff members and are published to The Culinary Council for review
Dietary restrictions preferences or choices are known on an individual basis to allow each resident to enjoy the full dining experience without having to explain or make special requests
Another closely held philosophy spread throughout his team is an emphasis on full flavor portion controlled options that allow for a greater individual choice plated in small or regular sizes
I have had the great pleasure of working with Chef Joel and presenting his distinguished
works of art at business meetings all over the Austin area It has become common for my clients to ask when I schedule a lunch meeting if it will be prepared by our Chef again I often tell him he makes my work not only easier but that there is a sense of pride in knowing I will be greeted at the door with anticipation and a sense of admiration knowing my presentation will be remembered for his creative talent
A good cook is a peculiar gift of the gods He must be a perfect creature from the brain to the palate from the palate to the fingerrsquos end ndash Walter Savage Landor

Submitted by Shelley Coleman MA LPC-SRecently I was fortunate to have the opportunity to speak to
the Canyon Ridge Middle School PTA members at their monthly meeting Specifically I was asked to speak on Anxiety and Children As a parent of a middle school child and therapy provider for adolescents this subject is more than relevant to me
In my therapy practice and in my home I see the increasing social and academic pressures for our kids Recently a poll conducted by NPR along with the Robert Wood Johnson Foundation and the Harvard School of Public Health found that nearly 40 of parents said their high school kids are experiencing a lot of stress from school Specifically longer homework sessions high stakes testing and more competitive college admissions are the drivers In my own school district and community the options for extracurriculars are countless and the sizeable academic menu of choices is growing
I realize that my children are incredibly fortunate to have these amazing opportunities I also realize that with great opportunity comes great responsibility How can I help my child find the balance between exposure to these resources and the ability to manage their schedules without creating an environment that is overwhelming and anxiety provoking
These are questions of course that families have to answer for themselves Just as individual families have varying priorities children vary on the types of schedules they can manage
To be sure adolescence is an anxious time As a parent we can play a key role in how our children experience anxiety Some things we can do as parents arebull Recognizeandhelpchildrenidentifyanxiousfeelingsbull Helpchildrendevelopcopingstrategiesbull Expresspositiveandrealisticexpectationsbull Validatefeelingsbutdonrsquotempowerthembull Encouragetoleranceofanxiousfeelingsbull ModelhealthywaysofmanagingstressandanxietyBy helping our children to identify and express their anxious
feelings we can begin to address concerns Like all uncomfortable emotions anxiety is a normal response that serves a purpose Helping our children label and express their feelings can be anxiety reducing Learning to recognize express tolerate and manage anxiety is a priceless skill As role models for our children coping with our own stress and anxiety can serve as a valuable example
Parents can model good stress management by making sleep nutrition and exercise a priority We can learn to recognize our personal limits for demands of our time and resources and set healthy boundaries And when indicated we can utilize professional resources like school counselors or independent therapists
If you think your child may have an issue with anxiety there are several symptoms you may notice Behaviorally teens may engage in unhealthy coping behaviors such as drug and alcohol use They may limit or avoid activities in an attempt to reduce anxiety Physically
Adolescents and Anxietyteens may report sleep disturbances headaches stomach aches or symptoms such as racing heart dizziness and muscle tension You may notice that symptoms are consistently very intense and go on for a long period of time Contacting a professional therapist can be of value in assessing the severity of the anxiety and determining if counseling is indicated
As parents we are instrumental in helping our children become healthy resilient individuals By setting realistic expectations and helping our children to prioritize their schedules we can teach them to set healthy limits and not over extend themselves We can teach them to tolerate and manage their own anxiety And when necessary we can seek out professional help

Dr RJ Jackson
For years orthodontics have been a ldquoreactiverdquo profession Parents would slowly watch their childrsquos teeth go from bad to worse while waiting for the baby teeth to fall out then finally visit an orthodontist for a set of braces Today orthodontics has evolved into a ldquoprevention focusedrdquo profession Longterm research studies have proven that preventing a problem from occurring is better than allowing the problem to occur and then fixing it The American Association of Orthodontics (AAO) and the American Board of Orthodontics (ABO) both recommend every child have an evaluation no later than age 7 Timing is of the essence because the ability to correct certain problems greatly diminishes as the child develops over time
Early detection and correction can also prevent future extractions improve self-esteem decrease the overall cost of orthodontic treatment and decrease the chances of dental complications later on Another benefit of early correction includes
improved stability which decreases the likelihood of teeth shifting back to the original improper position later in life
Although there are many benefits to treatment at an early age it is not recommended for every child Children treated unnecessarily can negatively impact their dental health and increase the total overall expenses for parentsThis is one reason it is imperative for parents to choose a board-certified orthodontist for treatment A board certified orthodontist has demonstrated competence and is held accountable for their work by the American Board of Orthodontics Only 1 out of 3 orthodontists are board-certified so do not make the mistake of assuming an orthodontist holds this recognition Your board-certified orthodontist will inform you if the time is right for orthodontic treatment
Contact RJ Orthodontics today to schedule a complimentary examination with a board-certified orthodontist

Although there are many benefits to treatment at an early age it is not recommended for every child Children treated unnecessarily can negatively impact their dental health and increase the total overall expenses for parentsThis is one reason it is imperative for parents to choose a board-certified orthodontist for treatment A board certified orthodontist has demonstrated competence and is held accountable for their work by the American Board of Orthodontics Only 1 out of 3 orthodontists are board-certified so do not make the mistake of assuming an orthodontist holds this recognition Your board-certified orthodontist will inform you if the time is right for orthodontic treatment
Contact RJ Orthodontics today to schedule a complimentary examination with a board-certified orthodontist

Submitted by Tom Henry Community Relations at Longhorn Village April is not only National
Food Month but indeed celebrates a plethora of glorious favorite provisions of the masses including but not limited to National Brussels Sprouts and Cabbage Month National BLT Sandwich Month Cranberries and Gooseberries Pecans Garlic Soft Pretzels Grilled Cheese Sandwiches Soy Foods Tomatillos and Asian Pears Fresh Florida Tomatoesndash the delicacies commemorated in the month of April alone could provide endless nourishment for the most refined of palates In recognition of this great bounty of naturersquos goodness my quest to do justice by this article begins and ends with one of the finest purveyors of exquisite cuisine in our neighborhood
Chef de Cuisine Joel Jones of Longhorn Village has the creative genius and savoir faire worthy of Michelin Star recognition (in my very humble opinion ndash I just rented the movie ldquoBurntrdquo with my wife so I know about these things) Joel worked his way through the industry starting at age 13 washing dishes at a small pizza house in
Illinois He was hired by Omni Hotels and quickly ascended from Line Cook to Executive Sous-chef in just 4 years
His th i r s t for the complex ability to not just please but delight the vast variety of culinary explorers living within Longhorn Village is quite
simply unparalleledWith a ldquoPlow to Platerdquo philosophy dining selections are prepared
with only the finest local ingredients whenever possible Having full control of the menu Chef Joel selects his produce from local growers who deliver 6 days a week Beef selections are Prime Grade from local ranchers and Spirits are offered from Texas distilleries Fresh fish deliveries are made 3 days per week and most offerings come from The Gulf including the shrimp and lobster
April is National Food Month

Of course the creative genius within inspires him to constantly reach for new and exotic delights including elk antelope crab-stuffed f lounder Northern Pacif ic halibut and Maine lobster
He offers his staff the same opportunities to explore their creative talents by encouraging them to prepare samplings for the team to experience and if they make the grade will be presented on the menu Each evening the fine dining crew assembles for a ldquofamily mealrdquo tasting of the selections of the night (yep just like in the movie)
Chef Joel also embraces critique from The Culinary Committee which is made up of Longhorn Village residents who offer feedback at regular monthly meetings All resident input and comments whether positive or negative are read daily to staff members and are published to The Culinary Council for review
Dietary restrictions preferences or choices are known on an individual basis to allow each resident to enjoy the full dining experience without having to explain or make special requests
Another closely held philosophy spread throughout his team is an emphasis on full flavor portion controlled options that allow for a greater individual choice plated in small or regular sizes
I have had the great pleasure of working with Chef Joel and presenting his distinguished
works of art at business meetings all over the Austin area It has become common for my clients to ask when I schedule a lunch meeting if it will be prepared by our Chef again I often tell him he makes my work not only easier but that there is a sense of pride in knowing I will be greeted at the door with anticipation and a sense of admiration knowing my presentation will be remembered for his creative talent
A good cook is a peculiar gift of the gods He must be a perfect creature from the brain to the palate from the palate to the fingerrsquos end ndash Walter Savage Landor

News You Can Use
Submitted by Shelley Coleman MA LPC-SRecently I was fortunate to have the opportunity to speak to
the Canyon Ridge Middle School PTA members at their monthly meeting Specifically I was asked to speak on Anxiety and Children As a parent of a middle school child and therapy provider for adolescents this subject is more than relevant to me
In my therapy practice and in my home I see the increasing social and academic pressures for our kids Recently a poll conducted by NPR along with the Robert Wood Johnson Foundation and the Harvard School of Public Health found that nearly 40 of parents said their high school kids are experiencing a lot of stress from school Specifically longer homework sessions high stakes testing and more competitive college admissions are the drivers In my own school district and community the options for extracurriculars are countless and the sizeable academic menu of choices is growing
I realize that my children are incredibly fortunate to have these amazing opportunities I also realize that with great opportunity comes great responsibility How can I help my child find the balance between exposure to these resources and the ability to manage their schedules without creating an environment that is overwhelming and anxiety provoking
These are questions of course that families have to answer for themselves Just as individual families have varying priorities children vary on the types of schedules they can manage
To be sure adolescence is an anxious time As a parent we can play a key role in how our children experience anxiety Some things we can do as parents arebull Recognizeandhelpchildrenidentifyanxiousfeelingsbull Helpchildrendevelopcopingstrategiesbull Expresspositiveandrealisticexpectationsbull Validatefeelingsbutdonrsquotempowerthembull Encouragetoleranceofanxiousfeelingsbull ModelhealthywaysofmanagingstressandanxietyBy helping our children to identify and express their anxious
feelings we can begin to address concerns Like all uncomfortable emotions anxiety is a normal response that serves a purpose Helping our children label and express their feelings can be anxiety reducing Learning to recognize express tolerate and manage anxiety is a priceless skill As role models for our children coping with our own stress and anxiety can serve as a valuable example
Parents can model good stress management by making sleep nutrition and exercise a priority We can learn to recognize our personal limits for demands of our time and resources and set healthy boundaries And when indicated we can utilize professional resources like school counselors or independent therapists
If you think your child may have an issue with anxiety there are several symptoms you may notice Behaviorally teens may engage in unhealthy coping behaviors such as drug and alcohol use They may limit or avoid activities in an attempt to reduce anxiety Physically
Adolescents and Anxietyteens may report sleep disturbances headaches stomach aches or symptoms such as racing heart dizziness and muscle tension You may notice that symptoms are consistently very intense and go on for a long period of time Contacting a professional therapist can be of value in assessing the severity of the anxiety and determining if counseling is indicated
As parents we are instrumental in helping our children become healthy resilient individuals By setting realistic expectations and helping our children to prioritize their schedules we can teach them to set healthy limits and not over extend themselves We can teach them to tolerate and manage their own anxiety And when necessary we can seek out professional help

PlanningWhen purchasing bedding annuals this spring choose properly
grown plants with good color Buy plants with well-developed root systems that are vigorous but not too large for their pots Plants that bloom in the pack are often root bound and can be set back for several weeks after being transplanted Plants not yet in bloom will actually bloom sooner be better established and grow faster
For hot-weather color select one of the following Gloriosa Daisy Madagascar Periwinkle Ornamental Peppers Mexican Zinnia or Amaranthus Josephs Coat Plan to attract hummingbirds to your garden this year by planting red or orange flowers Monarda (common names beebalm horsemint Oswego tea and bergamot) is a good perennial plant that thrives in sun and provides nectar for these small birds

Dr RJ Jackson
For years orthodontics have been a ldquoreactiverdquo profession Parents would slowly watch their childrsquos teeth go from bad to worse while waiting for the baby teeth to fall out then finally visit an orthodontist for a set of braces Today orthodontics has evolved into a ldquoprevention focusedrdquo profession Longterm research studies have proven that preventing a problem from occurring is better than allowing the problem to occur and then fixing it The American Association of Orthodontics (AAO) and the American Board of Orthodontics (ABO) both recommend every child have an evaluation no later than age 7 Timing is of the essence because the ability to correct certain problems greatly diminishes as the child develops over time
Early detection and correction can also prevent future extractions improve self-esteem decrease the overall cost of orthodontic treatment and decrease the chances of dental complications later on Another benefit of early correction includes
improved stability which decreases the likelihood of teeth shifting back to the original improper position later in life
Although there are many benefits to treatment at an early age it is not recommended for every child Children treated unnecessarily can negatively impact their dental health and increase the total overall expenses for parentsThis is one reason it is imperative for parents to choose a board-certified orthodontist for treatment A board certified orthodontist has demonstrated competence and is held accountable for their work by the American Board of Orthodontics Only 1 out of 3 orthodontists are board-certified so do not make the mistake of assuming an orthodontist holds this recognition Your board-certified orthodontist will inform you if the time is right for orthodontic treatment

Dr RJ Jackson
For years orthodontics have been a ldquoreactiverdquo profession Parents would slowly watch their childrsquos teeth go from bad to worse while waiting for the baby teeth to fall out then finally visit an orthodontist for a set of braces Today orthodontics has evolved into a ldquoprevention focusedrdquo profession Longterm research studies have proven that preventing a problem from occurring is better than allowing the problem to occur and then fixing it The American Association of Orthodontics (AAO) and the American Board of Orthodontics (ABO) both recommend every child have an evaluation no later than age 7 Timing is of the essence because the ability to correct certain problems greatly diminishes as the child develops over time
Early detection and correction can also prevent future extractions improve self-esteem decrease the overall cost of orthodontic treatment and decrease the chances of dental complications later on Another benefit of early correction includes
improved stability which decreases the likelihood of teeth shifting back to the original improper position later in life

Submitted by Tom Henry Community Relations at Longhorn Village April is not only National
Food Month but indeed celebrates a plethora of glorious favorite provisions of the masses including but not limited to National Brussels Sprouts and Cabbage Month National BLT Sandwich Month Cranberries and Gooseberries Pecans Garlic Soft Pretzels Grilled Cheese Sandwiches Soy Foods Tomatillos and Asian Pears Fresh Florida Tomatoesndash the delicacies commemorated in the month of April alone could provide endless nourishment for the most refined of palates In recognition of this great bounty of naturersquos goodness my quest to do justice by this article begins and ends with one of the finest purveyors of exquisite cuisine in our neighborhood
Chef de Cuisine Joel Jones of Longhorn Village has the creative genius and savoir faire worthy of Michelin Star recognition (in my very humble opinion ndash I just rented the movie ldquoBurntrdquo with my wife so I know about these things) Joel worked his way through the industry starting at age 13 washing dishes at a small pizza house in
Illinois He was hired by Omni Hotels and quickly ascended from Line Cook to Executive Sous-chef in just 4 years
His th i r s t for the complex ability to not just please but delight the vast variety of culinary explorers living within Longhorn Village is quite
simply unparalleledWith a ldquoPlow to Platerdquo philosophy dining selections are prepared
with only the finest local ingredients whenever possible Having full control of the menu Chef Joel selects his produce from local growers who deliver 6 days a week Beef selections are Prime Grade from local ranchers and Spirits are offered from Texas distilleries Fresh fish deliveries are made 3 days per week and most offerings come from The Gulf including the shrimp and lobster
April is National Food Month

Of course the creative genius within inspires him to constantly reach for new and exotic delights including elk antelope crab-stuffed f lounder Northern Pacif ic halibut and Maine lobster
He offers his staff the same opportunities to explore their creative talents by encouraging them to prepare samplings for the team to experience and if they make the grade will be presented on the menu Each evening the fine dining crew assembles for a ldquofamily mealrdquo tasting of the selections of the night (yep just like in the movie)
Chef Joel also embraces critique from The Culinary Committee which is made up of Longhorn Village residents who offer feedback at regular monthly meetings All resident input and comments whether positive or negative are read daily to staff members and are published to The Culinary Council for review
Dietary restrictions preferences or choices are known on an individual basis to allow each resident to enjoy the full dining experience without having to explain or make special requests
Another closely held philosophy spread throughout his team is an emphasis on full flavor portion controlled options that allow for a greater individual choice plated in small or regular sizes
I have had the great pleasure of working with Chef Joel and presenting his distinguished
works of art at business meetings all over the Austin area It has become common for my clients to ask when I schedule a lunch meeting if it will be prepared by our Chef again I often tell him he makes my work not only easier but that there is a sense of pride in knowing I will be greeted at the door with anticipation and a sense of admiration knowing my presentation will be remembered for his creative talent
A good cook is a peculiar gift of the gods He must be a perfect creature from the brain to the palate from the palate to the fingerrsquos end ndash Walter Savage Landor

News You Can Use
Submitted by Shelley Coleman MA LPC-SRecently I was fortunate to have the opportunity to speak to
the Canyon Ridge Middle School PTA members at their monthly meeting Specifically I was asked to speak on Anxiety and Children As a parent of a middle school child and therapy provider for adolescents this subject is more than relevant to me
In my therapy practice and in my home I see the increasing social and academic pressures for our kids Recently a poll conducted by NPR along with the Robert Wood Johnson Foundation and the Harvard School of Public Health found that nearly 40 of parents said their high school kids are experiencing a lot of stress from school Specifically longer homework sessions high stakes testing and more competitive college admissions are the drivers In my own school district and community the options for extracurriculars are countless and the sizeable academic menu of choices is growing
I realize that my children are incredibly fortunate to have these amazing opportunities I also realize that with great opportunity comes great responsibility How can I help my child find the balance between exposure to these resources and the ability to manage their schedules without creating an environment that is overwhelming and anxiety provoking
These are questions of course that families have to answer for themselves Just as individual families have varying priorities children vary on the types of schedules they can manage
To be sure adolescence is an anxious time As a parent we can play a key role in how our children experience anxiety Some things we can do as parents arebull Recognizeandhelpchildrenidentifyanxiousfeelingsbull Helpchildrendevelopcopingstrategiesbull Expresspositiveandrealisticexpectationsbull Validatefeelingsbutdonrsquotempowerthembull Encouragetoleranceofanxiousfeelingsbull ModelhealthywaysofmanagingstressandanxietyBy helping our children to identify and express their anxious
feelings we can begin to address concerns Like all uncomfortable emotions anxiety is a normal response that serves a purpose Helping our children label and express their feelings can be anxiety reducing Learning to recognize express tolerate and manage anxiety is a priceless skill As role models for our children coping with our own stress and anxiety can serve as a valuable example
Parents can model good stress management by making sleep nutrition and exercise a priority We can learn to recognize our personal limits for demands of our time and resources and set healthy boundaries And when indicated we can utilize professional resources like school counselors or independent therapists
If you think your child may have an issue with anxiety there are several symptoms you may notice Behaviorally teens may engage in unhealthy coping behaviors such as drug and alcohol use They may limit or avoid activities in an attempt to reduce anxiety Physically
Adolescents and Anxietyteens may report sleep disturbances headaches stomach aches or symptoms such as racing heart dizziness and muscle tension You may notice that symptoms are consistently very intense and go on for a long period of time Contacting a professional therapist can be of value in assessing the severity of the anxiety and determining if counseling is indicated
As parents we are instrumental in helping our children become healthy resilient individuals By setting realistic expectations and helping our children to prioritize their schedules we can teach them to set healthy limits and not over extend themselves We can teach them to tolerate and manage their own anxiety And when necessary we can seek out professional help

PlanningWhen purchasing bedding annuals this spring choose properly
grown plants with good color Buy plants with well-developed root systems that are vigorous but not too large for their pots Plants that bloom in the pack are often root bound and can be set back for several weeks after being transplanted Plants not yet in bloom will actually bloom sooner be better established and grow faster
For hot-weather color select one of the following Gloriosa Daisy Madagascar Periwinkle Ornamental Peppers Mexican Zinnia or Amaranthus Josephs Coat Plan to attract hummingbirds to your garden this year by planting red or orange flowers Monarda (common names beebalm horsemint Oswego tea and bergamot) is a good perennial plant that thrives in sun and provides nectar for these small birds

Dr RJ Jackson
For years orthodontics have been a ldquoreactiverdquo profession Parents would slowly watch their childrsquos teeth go from bad to worse while waiting for the baby teeth to fall out then finally visit an orthodontist for a set of braces Today orthodontics has evolved into a ldquoprevention focusedrdquo profession Longterm research studies have proven that preventing a problem from occurring is better than allowing the problem to occur and then fixing it The American Association of Orthodontics (AAO) and the American Board of Orthodontics (ABO) both recommend every child have an evaluation no later than age 7 Timing is of the essence because the ability to correct certain problems greatly diminishes as the child develops over time
Early detection and correction can also prevent future extractions improve self-esteem decrease the overall cost of orthodontic treatment and decrease the chances of dental complications later on Another benefit of early correction includes
improved stability which decreases the likelihood of teeth shifting back to the original improper position later in life
Although there are many benefits to treatment at an early age it is not recommended for every child Children treated unnecessarily can negatively impact their dental health and increase the total overall expenses for parentsThis is one reason it is imperative for parents to choose a board-certified orthodontist for treatment A board certified orthodontist has demonstrated competence and is held accountable for their work by the American Board of Orthodontics Only 1 out of 3 orthodontists are board-certified so do not make the mistake of assuming an orthodontist holds this recognition Your board-certified orthodontist will inform you if the time is right for orthodontic treatment

Dr RJ Jackson
For years orthodontics have been a ldquoreactiverdquo profession Parents would slowly watch their childrsquos teeth go from bad to worse while waiting for the baby teeth to fall out then finally visit an orthodontist for a set of braces Today orthodontics has evolved into a ldquoprevention focusedrdquo profession Longterm research studies have proven that preventing a problem from occurring is better than allowing the problem to occur and then fixing it The American Association of Orthodontics (AAO) and the American Board of Orthodontics (ABO) both recommend every child have an evaluation no later than age 7 Timing is of the essence because the ability to correct certain problems greatly diminishes as the child develops over time
Early detection and correction can also prevent future extractions improve self-esteem decrease the overall cost of orthodontic treatment and decrease the chances of dental complications later on Another benefit of early correction includes
improved stability which decreases the likelihood of teeth shifting back to the original improper position later in life

Submitted by Tom Henry Community Relations at Longhorn Village April is not only National
Food Month but indeed celebrates a plethora of glorious favorite provisions of the masses including but not limited to National Brussels Sprouts and Cabbage Month National BLT Sandwich Month Cranberries and Gooseberries Pecans Garlic Soft Pretzels Grilled Cheese Sandwiches Soy Foods Tomatillos and Asian Pears Fresh Florida Tomatoesndash the delicacies commemorated in the month of April alone could provide endless nourishment for the most refined of palates In recognition of this great bounty of naturersquos goodness my quest to do justice by this article begins and ends with one of the finest purveyors of exquisite cuisine in our neighborhood
Chef de Cuisine Joel Jones of Longhorn Village has the creative genius and savoir faire worthy of Michelin Star recognition (in my very humble opinion ndash I just rented the movie ldquoBurntrdquo with my wife so I know about these things) Joel worked his way through the industry starting at age 13 washing dishes at a small pizza house in
Illinois He was hired by Omni Hotels and quickly ascended from Line Cook to Executive Sous-chef in just 4 years
His th i r s t for the complex ability to not just please but delight the vast variety of culinary explorers living within Longhorn Village is quite
simply unparalleledWith a ldquoPlow to Platerdquo philosophy dining selections are prepared
with only the finest local ingredients whenever possible Having full control of the menu Chef Joel selects his produce from local growers who deliver 6 days a week Beef selections are Prime Grade from local ranchers and Spirits are offered from Texas distilleries Fresh fish deliveries are made 3 days per week and most offerings come from The Gulf including the shrimp and lobster
April is National Food Month

Of course the creative genius within inspires him to constantly reach for new and exotic delights including elk antelope crab-stuffed f lounder Northern Pacif ic halibut and Maine lobster
He offers his staff the same opportunities to explore their creative talents by encouraging them to prepare samplings for the team to experience and if they make the grade will be presented on the menu Each evening the fine dining crew assembles for a ldquofamily mealrdquo tasting of the selections of the night (yep just like in the movie)
Chef Joel also embraces critique from The Culinary Committee which is made up of Longhorn Village residents who offer feedback at regular monthly meetings All resident input and comments whether positive or negative are read daily to staff members and are published to The Culinary Council for review
Dietary restrictions preferences or choices are known on an individual basis to allow each resident to enjoy the full dining experience without having to explain or make special requests
Another closely held philosophy spread throughout his team is an emphasis on full flavor portion controlled options that allow for a greater individual choice plated in small or regular sizes
I have had the great pleasure of working with Chef Joel and presenting his distinguished
works of art at business meetings all over the Austin area It has become common for my clients to ask when I schedule a lunch meeting if it will be prepared by our Chef again I often tell him he makes my work not only easier but that there is a sense of pride in knowing I will be greeted at the door with anticipation and a sense of admiration knowing my presentation will be remembered for his creative talent
A good cook is a peculiar gift of the gods He must be a perfect creature from the brain to the palate from the palate to the fingerrsquos end ndash Walter Savage Landor

Submitted by Shelley Coleman MA LPC-SRecently I was fortunate to have the opportunity to speak to
the Canyon Ridge Middle School PTA members at their monthly meeting Specifically I was asked to speak on Anxiety and Children As a parent of a middle school child and therapy provider for adolescents this subject is more than relevant to me
In my therapy practice and in my home I see the increasing social and academic pressures for our kids Recently a poll conducted by NPR along with the Robert Wood Johnson Foundation and the Harvard School of Public Health found that nearly 40 of parents said their high school kids are experiencing a lot of stress from school Specifically longer homework sessions high stakes testing and more competitive college admissions are the drivers In my own school district and community the options for extracurriculars are countless and the sizeable academic menu of choices is growing
I realize that my children are incredibly fortunate to have these amazing opportunities I also realize that with great opportunity comes great responsibility How can I help my child find the balance between exposure to these resources and the ability to manage their schedules without creating an environment that is overwhelming and anxiety provoking
These are questions of course that families have to answer for themselves Just as individual families have varying priorities children vary on the types of schedules they can manage
To be sure adolescence is an anxious time As a parent we can play a key role in how our children experience anxiety Some things we can do as parents arebull Recognizeandhelpchildrenidentifyanxiousfeelingsbull Helpchildrendevelopcopingstrategiesbull Expresspositiveandrealisticexpectationsbull Validatefeelingsbutdonrsquotempowerthembull Encouragetoleranceofanxiousfeelingsbull ModelhealthywaysofmanagingstressandanxietyBy helping our children to identify and express their anxious
feelings we can begin to address concerns Like all uncomfortable emotions anxiety is a normal response that serves a purpose Helping our children label and express their feelings can be anxiety reducing Learning to recognize express tolerate and manage anxiety is a priceless skill As role models for our children coping with our own stress and anxiety can serve as a valuable example
Parents can model good stress management by making sleep nutrition and exercise a priority We can learn to recognize our personal limits for demands of our time and resources and set healthy boundaries And when indicated we can utilize professional resources like school counselors or independent therapists
If you think your child may have an issue with anxiety there are several symptoms you may notice Behaviorally teens may engage in unhealthy coping behaviors such as drug and alcohol use They may limit or avoid activities in an attempt to reduce anxiety Physically
Adolescents and Anxietyteens may report sleep disturbances headaches stomach aches or symptoms such as racing heart dizziness and muscle tension You may notice that symptoms are consistently very intense and go on for a long period of time Contacting a professional therapist can be of value in assessing the severity of the anxiety and determining if counseling is indicated
As parents we are instrumental in helping our children become healthy resilient individuals By setting realistic expectations and helping our children to prioritize their schedules we can teach them to set healthy limits and not over extend themselves We can teach them to tolerate and manage their own anxiety And when necessary we can seek out professional help

Dr RJ Jackson
For years orthodontics have been a ldquoreactiverdquo profession Parents would slowly watch their childrsquos teeth go from bad to worse while waiting for the baby teeth to fall out then finally visit an orthodontist for a set of braces Today orthodontics has evolved into a ldquoprevention focusedrdquo profession Longterm research studies have proven that preventing a problem from occurring is better than allowing the problem to occur and then fixing it The American Association of Orthodontics (AAO) and the American Board of Orthodontics (ABO) both recommend every child have an evaluation no later than age 7 Timing is of the essence because the ability to correct certain problems greatly diminishes as the child develops over time
Early detection and correction can also prevent future extractions improve self-esteem decrease the overall cost of orthodontic treatment and decrease the chances of dental complications later on Another benefit of early correction includes
improved stability which decreases the likelihood of teeth shifting back to the original improper position later in life
Although there are many benefits to treatment at an early age it is not recommended for every child Children treated unnecessarily can negatively impact their dental health and increase the total overall expenses for parentsThis is one reason it is imperative for parents to choose a board-certified orthodontist for treatment A board certified orthodontist has demonstrated competence and is held accountable for their work by the American Board of Orthodontics Only 1 out of 3 orthodontists are board-certified so do not make the mistake of assuming an orthodontist holds this recognition Your board-certified orthodontist will inform you if the time is right for orthodontic treatment
Contact RJ Orthodontics today to schedule a complimentary examination with a board-certified orthodontist

Although there are many benefits to treatment at an early age it is not recommended for every child Children treated unnecessarily can negatively impact their dental health and increase the total overall expenses for parentsThis is one reason it is imperative for parents to choose a board-certified orthodontist for treatment A board certified orthodontist has demonstrated competence and is held accountable for their work by the American Board of Orthodontics Only 1 out of 3 orthodontists are board-certified so do not make the mistake of assuming an orthodontist holds this recognition Your board-certified orthodontist will inform you if the time is right for orthodontic treatment
Contact RJ Orthodontics today to schedule a complimentary examination with a board-certified orthodontist

Chef de Cuisine Joel Jones of Longhorn Village has the creative genius and savoir faire worthy of Michelin Star recognition (in my very humble opinion ndash I just rented the movie ldquoBurntrdquo with my wife so I know about these things) Joel worked his way through the industry starting at age 13 washing dishes at a small pizza house in
Illinois He was hired by Omni Hotels and quickly ascended from Line Cook to Executive Sous-chef in just 4 years
His th i r s t for the complex ability to not just please but delight the vast variety of culinary explorers living within Longhorn Village is quite
simply unparalleledWith a ldquoPlow to Platerdquo philosophy dining selections are prepared
with only the finest local ingredients whenever possible Having full control of the menu Chef Joel selects his produce from local growers who deliver 6 days a week Beef selections are Prime Grade from local ranchers and Spirits are offered from Texas distilleries Fresh fish deliveries are made 3 days per week and most offerings come from The Gulf including the shrimp and lobster
April is National Food Month

Of course the creative genius within inspires him to constantly reach for new and exotic delights including elk antelope crab-stuffed f lounder Northern Pacif ic halibut and Maine lobster
He offers his staff the same opportunities to explore their creative talents by encouraging them to prepare samplings for the team to experience and if they make the grade will be presented on the menu Each evening the fine dining crew assembles for a ldquofamily mealrdquo tasting of the selections of the night (yep just like in the movie)
Chef Joel also embraces critique from The Culinary Committee which is made up of Longhorn Village residents who offer feedback at regular monthly meetings All resident input and comments whether positive or negative are read daily to staff members and are published to The Culinary Council for review
Dietary restrictions preferences or choices are known on an individual basis to allow each resident to enjoy the full dining experience without having to explain or make special requests
Another closely held philosophy spread throughout his team is an emphasis on full flavor portion controlled options that allow for a greater individual choice plated in small or regular sizes
I have had the great pleasure of working with Chef Joel and presenting his distinguished
works of art at business meetings all over the Austin area It has become common for my clients to ask when I schedule a lunch meeting if it will be prepared by our Chef again I often tell him he makes my work not only easier but that there is a sense of pride in knowing I will be greeted at the door with anticipation and a sense of admiration knowing my presentation will be remembered for his creative talent
A good cook is a peculiar gift of the gods He must be a perfect creature from the brain to the palate from the palate to the fingerrsquos end ndash Walter Savage Landor

Submitted by Shelley Coleman MA LPC-SRecently I was fortunate to have the opportunity to speak to
the Canyon Ridge Middle School PTA members at their monthly meeting Specifically I was asked to speak on Anxiety and Children As a parent of a middle school child and therapy provider for adolescents this subject is more than relevant to me
In my therapy practice and in my home I see the increasing social and academic pressures for our kids Recently a poll conducted by NPR along with the Robert Wood Johnson Foundation and the Harvard School of Public Health found that nearly 40 of parents said their high school kids are experiencing a lot of stress from school Specifically longer homework sessions high stakes testing and more competitive college admissions are the drivers In my own school district and community the options for extracurriculars are countless and the sizeable academic menu of choices is growing
I realize that my children are incredibly fortunate to have these amazing opportunities I also realize that with great opportunity comes great responsibility How can I help my child find the balance between exposure to these resources and the ability to manage their schedules without creating an environment that is overwhelming and anxiety provoking
These are questions of course that families have to answer for themselves Just as individual families have varying priorities children vary on the types of schedules they can manage
To be sure adolescence is an anxious time As a parent we can play a key role in how our children experience anxiety Some things we can do as parents arebull Recognizeandhelpchildrenidentifyanxiousfeelingsbull Helpchildrendevelopcopingstrategiesbull Expresspositiveandrealisticexpectationsbull Validatefeelingsbutdonrsquotempowerthembull Encouragetoleranceofanxiousfeelingsbull ModelhealthywaysofmanagingstressandanxietyBy helping our children to identify and express their anxious
feelings we can begin to address concerns Like all uncomfortable emotions anxiety is a normal response that serves a purpose Helping our children label and express their feelings can be anxiety reducing Learning to recognize express tolerate and manage anxiety is a priceless skill As role models for our children coping with our own stress and anxiety can serve as a valuable example
Parents can model good stress management by making sleep nutrition and exercise a priority We can learn to recognize our personal limits for demands of our time and resources and set healthy boundaries And when indicated we can utilize professional resources like school counselors or independent therapists
If you think your child may have an issue with anxiety there are several symptoms you may notice Behaviorally teens may engage in unhealthy coping behaviors such as drug and alcohol use They may limit or avoid activities in an attempt to reduce anxiety Physically
Adolescents and Anxietyteens may report sleep disturbances headaches stomach aches or symptoms such as racing heart dizziness and muscle tension You may notice that symptoms are consistently very intense and go on for a long period of time Contacting a professional therapist can be of value in assessing the severity of the anxiety and determining if counseling is indicated
As parents we are instrumental in helping our children become healthy resilient individuals By setting realistic expectations and helping our children to prioritize their schedules we can teach them to set healthy limits and not over extend themselves We can teach them to tolerate and manage their own anxiety And when necessary we can seek out professional help

April Gardening TipsOffered by WeekendGardenerNet
Use the below information to determine what gardening tasks you want to accomplish this month
PlanningWhen purchasing bedding annuals this spring choose properly
grown plants with good color Buy plants with well-developed root systems that are vigorous but not too large for their pots Plants that bloom in the pack are often root bound and can be set back for several weeks after being transplanted Plants not yet in bloom will actually bloom sooner be better established and grow faster
For hot-weather color select one of the following Gloriosa Daisy Madagascar Periwinkle Ornamental Peppers Mexican Zinnia or Amaranthus Josephs Coat Plan to attract hummingbirds to your garden this year by planting red or orange flowers Monarda (common names beebalm horsemint Oswego tea and bergamot) is a good perennial plant that thrives in sun and provides nectar for these small birds

Dr RJ Jackson
For years orthodontics have been a ldquoreactiverdquo profession Parents would slowly watch their childrsquos teeth go from bad to worse while waiting for the baby teeth to fall out then finally visit an orthodontist for a set of braces Today orthodontics has evolved into a ldquoprevention focusedrdquo profession Longterm research studies have proven that preventing a problem from occurring is better than allowing the problem to occur and then fixing it The American Association of Orthodontics (AAO) and the American Board of Orthodontics (ABO) both recommend every child have an evaluation no later than age 7 Timing is of the essence because the ability to correct certain problems greatly diminishes as the child develops over time
Early detection and correction can also prevent future extractions improve self-esteem decrease the overall cost of orthodontic treatment and decrease the chances of dental complications later on Another benefit of early correction includes
improved stability which decreases the likelihood of teeth shifting back to the original improper position later in life
Although there are many benefits to treatment at an early age it is not recommended for every child Children treated unnecessarily can negatively impact their dental health and increase the total overall expenses for parentsThis is one reason it is imperative for parents to choose a board-certified orthodontist for treatment A board certified orthodontist has demonstrated competence and is held accountable for their work by the American Board of Orthodontics Only 1 out of 3 orthodontists are board-certified so do not make the mistake of assuming an orthodontist holds this recognition Your board-certified orthodontist will inform you if the time is right for orthodontic treatment
Contact RJ Orthodontics today to schedule a complimentary examination with a board-certified orthodontist

Submitted by Tom Henry Community Relations at Longhorn Village April is not only National
Food Month but indeed celebrates a plethora of glorious favorite provisions of the masses including but not limited to National Brussels Sprouts and Cabbage Month National BLT Sandwich Month Cranberries and Gooseberries Pecans Garlic Soft Pretzels Grilled Cheese Sandwiches Soy Foods Tomatillos and Asian Pears Fresh Florida Tomatoesndash the delicacies commemorated in the month of April alone could provide endless nourishment for the most refined of palates In recognition of this great bounty of naturersquos goodness my quest to do justice by this article begins and ends with one of the finest purveyors of exquisite cuisine in our neighborhood
Chef de Cuisine Joel Jones of Longhorn Village has the creative genius and savoir faire worthy of Michelin Star recognition (in my very humble opinion ndash I just rented the movie ldquoBurntrdquo with my wife so I know about these things) Joel worked his way through the industry starting at age 13 washing dishes at a small pizza house in
Illinois He was hired by Omni Hotels and quickly ascended from Line Cook to Executive Sous-chef in just 4 years
His th i r s t for the complex ability to not just please but delight the vast variety of culinary explorers living within Longhorn Village is quite
simply unparalleledWith a ldquoPlow to Platerdquo philosophy dining selections are prepared
with only the finest local ingredients whenever possible Having full control of the menu Chef Joel selects his produce from local growers who deliver 6 days a week Beef selections are Prime Grade from local ranchers and Spirits are offered from Texas distilleries Fresh fish deliveries are made 3 days per week and most offerings come from The Gulf including the shrimp and lobster
April is National Food Month

Of course the creative genius within inspires him to constantly reach for new and exotic delights including elk antelope crab-stuffed f lounder Northern Pacif ic halibut and Maine lobster
He offers his staff the same opportunities to explore their creative talents by encouraging them to prepare samplings for the team to experience and if they make the grade will be presented on the menu Each evening the fine dining crew assembles for a ldquofamily mealrdquo tasting of the selections of the night (yep just like in the movie)
Chef Joel also embraces critique from The Culinary Committee which is made up of Longhorn Village residents who offer feedback at regular monthly meetings All resident input and comments whether positive or negative are read daily to staff members and are published to The Culinary Council for review
Dietary restrictions preferences or choices are known on an individual basis to allow each resident to enjoy the full dining experience without having to explain or make special requests
Another closely held philosophy spread throughout his team is an emphasis on full flavor portion controlled options that allow for a greater individual choice plated in small or regular sizes
I have had the great pleasure of working with Chef Joel and presenting his distinguished
works of art at business meetings all over the Austin area It has become common for my clients to ask when I schedule a lunch meeting if it will be prepared by our Chef again I often tell him he makes my work not only easier but that there is a sense of pride in knowing I will be greeted at the door with anticipation and a sense of admiration knowing my presentation will be remembered for his creative talent
A good cook is a peculiar gift of the gods He must be a perfect creature from the brain to the palate from the palate to the fingerrsquos end ndash Walter Savage Landor

News You Can Use
Submitted by Shelley Coleman MA LPC-SRecently I was fortunate to have the opportunity to speak to
the Canyon Ridge Middle School PTA members at their monthly meeting Specifically I was asked to speak on Anxiety and Children As a parent of a middle school child and therapy provider for adolescents this subject is more than relevant to me
In my therapy practice and in my home I see the increasing social and academic pressures for our kids Recently a poll conducted by NPR along with the Robert Wood Johnson Foundation and the Harvard School of Public Health found that nearly 40 of parents said their high school kids are experiencing a lot of stress from school Specifically longer homework sessions high stakes testing and more competitive college admissions are the drivers In my own school district and community the options for extracurriculars are countless and the sizeable academic menu of choices is growing
I realize that my children are incredibly fortunate to have these amazing opportunities I also realize that with great opportunity comes great responsibility How can I help my child find the balance between exposure to these resources and the ability to manage their schedules without creating an environment that is overwhelming and anxiety provoking
These are questions of course that families have to answer for themselves Just as individual families have varying priorities children vary on the types of schedules they can manage
To be sure adolescence is an anxious time As a parent we can play a key role in how our children experience anxiety Some things we can do as parents arebull Recognizeandhelpchildrenidentifyanxiousfeelingsbull Helpchildrendevelopcopingstrategiesbull Expresspositiveandrealisticexpectationsbull Validatefeelingsbutdonrsquotempowerthembull Encouragetoleranceofanxiousfeelingsbull ModelhealthywaysofmanagingstressandanxietyBy helping our children to identify and express their anxious
feelings we can begin to address concerns Like all uncomfortable emotions anxiety is a normal response that serves a purpose Helping our children label and express their feelings can be anxiety reducing Learning to recognize express tolerate and manage anxiety is a priceless skill As role models for our children coping with our own stress and anxiety can serve as a valuable example
Parents can model good stress management by making sleep nutrition and exercise a priority We can learn to recognize our personal limits for demands of our time and resources and set healthy boundaries And when indicated we can utilize professional resources like school counselors or independent therapists
If you think your child may have an issue with anxiety there are several symptoms you may notice Behaviorally teens may engage in unhealthy coping behaviors such as drug and alcohol use They may limit or avoid activities in an attempt to reduce anxiety Physically
Adolescents and Anxietyteens may report sleep disturbances headaches stomach aches or symptoms such as racing heart dizziness and muscle tension You may notice that symptoms are consistently very intense and go on for a long period of time Contacting a professional therapist can be of value in assessing the severity of the anxiety and determining if counseling is indicated
As parents we are instrumental in helping our children become healthy resilient individuals By setting realistic expectations and helping our children to prioritize their schedules we can teach them to set healthy limits and not over extend themselves We can teach them to tolerate and manage their own anxiety And when necessary we can seek out professional help

Use the below information to determine what gardening tasks you want to accomplish this month
PlanningWhen purchasing bedding annuals this spring choose properly
grown plants with good color Buy plants with well-developed root systems that are vigorous but not too large for their pots Plants that bloom in the pack are often root bound and can be set back for several weeks after being transplanted Plants not yet in bloom will actually bloom sooner be better established and grow faster
For hot-weather color select one of the following Gloriosa Daisy Madagascar Periwinkle Ornamental Peppers Mexican Zinnia or Amaranthus Josephs Coat Plan to attract hummingbirds to your garden this year by planting red or orange flowers Monarda (common names beebalm horsemint Oswego tea and bergamot) is a good perennial plant that thrives in sun and provides nectar for these small birds

YOUR BRACES WITH DR JACKSON
Dr RJ Jackson
For years orthodontics have been a ldquoreactiverdquo profession Parents would slowly watch their childrsquos teeth go from bad to worse while waiting for the baby teeth to fall out then finally visit an orthodontist for a set of braces Today orthodontics has evolved into a ldquoprevention focusedrdquo profession Longterm research studies have proven that preventing a problem from occurring is better than allowing the problem to occur and then fixing it The American Association of Orthodontics (AAO) and the American Board of Orthodontics (ABO) both recommend every child have an evaluation no later than age 7 Timing is of the essence because the ability to correct certain problems greatly diminishes as the child develops over time
Early detection and correction can also prevent future extractions improve self-esteem decrease the overall cost of orthodontic treatment and decrease the chances of dental complications later on Another benefit of early correction includes
improved stability which decreases the likelihood of teeth shifting back to the original improper position later in life
Although there are many benefits to treatment at an early age it is not recommended for every child Children treated unnecessarily can negatively impact their dental health and increase the total overall expenses for parentsThis is one reason it is imperative for parents to choose a board-certified orthodontist for treatment A board certified orthodontist has demonstrated competence and is held accountable for their work by the American Board of Orthodontics Only 1 out of 3 orthodontists are board-certified so do not make the mistake of assuming an orthodontist holds this recognition Your board-certified orthodontist will inform you if the time is right for orthodontic treatment
Contact RJ Orthodontics today to schedule a complimentary examination with a board-certified orthodontist

Submitted by Tom Henry Community Relations at Longhorn Village April is not only National
Food Month but indeed celebrates a plethora of glorious favorite provisions of the masses including but not limited to National Brussels Sprouts and Cabbage Month National BLT Sandwich Month Cranberries and Gooseberries Pecans Garlic Soft Pretzels Grilled Cheese Sandwiches Soy Foods Tomatillos and Asian Pears Fresh Florida Tomatoesndash the delicacies commemorated in the month of April alone could provide endless nourishment for the most refined of palates In recognition of this great bounty of naturersquos goodness my quest to do justice by this article begins and ends with one of the finest purveyors of exquisite cuisine in our neighborhood
Chef de Cuisine Joel Jones of Longhorn Village has the creative genius and savoir faire worthy of Michelin Star recognition (in my very humble opinion ndash I just rented the movie ldquoBurntrdquo with my wife so I know about these things) Joel worked his way through the industry starting at age 13 washing dishes at a small pizza house in
Illinois He was hired by Omni Hotels and quickly ascended from Line Cook to Executive Sous-chef in just 4 years
His th i r s t for the complex ability to not just please but delight the vast variety of culinary explorers living within Longhorn Village is quite
simply unparalleledWith a ldquoPlow to Platerdquo philosophy dining selections are prepared
with only the finest local ingredients whenever possible Having full control of the menu Chef Joel selects his produce from local growers who deliver 6 days a week Beef selections are Prime Grade from local ranchers and Spirits are offered from Texas distilleries Fresh fish deliveries are made 3 days per week and most offerings come from The Gulf including the shrimp and lobster
April is National Food Month

Of course the creative genius within inspires him to constantly reach for new and exotic delights including elk antelope crab-stuffed f lounder Northern Pacif ic halibut and Maine lobster
He offers his staff the same opportunities to explore their creative talents by encouraging them to prepare samplings for the team to experience and if they make the grade will be presented on the menu Each evening the fine dining crew assembles for a ldquofamily mealrdquo tasting of the selections of the night (yep just like in the movie)
Chef Joel also embraces critique from The Culinary Committee which is made up of Longhorn Village residents who offer feedback at regular monthly meetings All resident input and comments whether positive or negative are read daily to staff members and are published to The Culinary Council for review
Dietary restrictions preferences or choices are known on an individual basis to allow each resident to enjoy the full dining experience without having to explain or make special requests
Another closely held philosophy spread throughout his team is an emphasis on full flavor portion controlled options that allow for a greater individual choice plated in small or regular sizes
I have had the great pleasure of working with Chef Joel and presenting his distinguished
works of art at business meetings all over the Austin area It has become common for my clients to ask when I schedule a lunch meeting if it will be prepared by our Chef again I often tell him he makes my work not only easier but that there is a sense of pride in knowing I will be greeted at the door with anticipation and a sense of admiration knowing my presentation will be remembered for his creative talent
A good cook is a peculiar gift of the gods He must be a perfect creature from the brain to the palate from the palate to the fingerrsquos end ndash Walter Savage Landor

News You Can Use
Submitted by Shelley Coleman MA LPC-SRecently I was fortunate to have the opportunity to speak to
the Canyon Ridge Middle School PTA members at their monthly meeting Specifically I was asked to speak on Anxiety and Children As a parent of a middle school child and therapy provider for adolescents this subject is more than relevant to me
In my therapy practice and in my home I see the increasing social and academic pressures for our kids Recently a poll conducted by NPR along with the Robert Wood Johnson Foundation and the Harvard School of Public Health found that nearly 40 of parents said their high school kids are experiencing a lot of stress from school Specifically longer homework sessions high stakes testing and more competitive college admissions are the drivers In my own school district and community the options for extracurriculars are countless and the sizeable academic menu of choices is growing
I realize that my children are incredibly fortunate to have these amazing opportunities I also realize that with great opportunity comes great responsibility How can I help my child find the balance between exposure to these resources and the ability to manage their schedules without creating an environment that is overwhelming and anxiety provoking
These are questions of course that families have to answer for themselves Just as individual families have varying priorities children vary on the types of schedules they can manage
To be sure adolescence is an anxious time As a parent we can play a key role in how our children experience anxiety Some things we can do as parents arebull Recognizeandhelpchildrenidentifyanxiousfeelingsbull Helpchildrendevelopcopingstrategiesbull Expresspositiveandrealisticexpectationsbull Validatefeelingsbutdonrsquotempowerthembull Encouragetoleranceofanxiousfeelingsbull ModelhealthywaysofmanagingstressandanxietyBy helping our children to identify and express their anxious
feelings we can begin to address concerns Like all uncomfortable emotions anxiety is a normal response that serves a purpose Helping our children label and express their feelings can be anxiety reducing Learning to recognize express tolerate and manage anxiety is a priceless skill As role models for our children coping with our own stress and anxiety can serve as a valuable example
Parents can model good stress management by making sleep nutrition and exercise a priority We can learn to recognize our personal limits for demands of our time and resources and set healthy boundaries And when indicated we can utilize professional resources like school counselors or independent therapists
If you think your child may have an issue with anxiety there are several symptoms you may notice Behaviorally teens may engage in unhealthy coping behaviors such as drug and alcohol use They may limit or avoid activities in an attempt to reduce anxiety Physically
Adolescents and Anxietyteens may report sleep disturbances headaches stomach aches or symptoms such as racing heart dizziness and muscle tension You may notice that symptoms are consistently very intense and go on for a long period of time Contacting a professional therapist can be of value in assessing the severity of the anxiety and determining if counseling is indicated
As parents we are instrumental in helping our children become healthy resilient individuals By setting realistic expectations and helping our children to prioritize their schedules we can teach them to set healthy limits and not over extend themselves We can teach them to tolerate and manage their own anxiety And when necessary we can seek out professional help

PlanningWhen purchasing bedding annuals this spring choose properly
grown plants with good color Buy plants with well-developed root systems that are vigorous but not too large for their pots Plants that bloom in the pack are often root bound and can be set back for several weeks after being transplanted Plants not yet in bloom will actually bloom sooner be better established and grow faster
For hot-weather color select one of the following Gloriosa Daisy Madagascar Periwinkle Ornamental Peppers Mexican Zinnia or Amaranthus Josephs Coat Plan to attract hummingbirds to your garden this year by planting red or orange flowers Monarda (common names beebalm horsemint Oswego tea and bergamot) is a good perennial plant that thrives in sun and provides nectar for these small birds

Dr RJ Jackson
For years orthodontics have been a ldquoreactiverdquo profession Parents would slowly watch their childrsquos teeth go from bad to worse while waiting for the baby teeth to fall out then finally visit an orthodontist for a set of braces Today orthodontics has evolved into a ldquoprevention focusedrdquo profession Longterm research studies have proven that preventing a problem from occurring is better than allowing the problem to occur and then fixing it The American Association of Orthodontics (AAO) and the American Board of Orthodontics (ABO) both recommend every child have an evaluation no later than age 7 Timing is of the essence because the ability to correct certain problems greatly diminishes as the child develops over time

improved stability which decreases the likelihood of teeth shifting back to the original improper position later in life
Although there are many benefits to treatment at an early age it is not recommended for every child Children treated unnecessarily can negatively impact their dental health and increase the total overall expenses for parentsThis is one reason it is imperative for parents to choose a board-certified orthodontist for treatment A board certified orthodontist has demonstrated competence and is held accountable for their work by the American Board of Orthodontics Only 1 out of 3 orthodontists are board-certified so do not make the mistake of assuming an orthodontist holds this recognition Your board-certified orthodontist will inform you if the time is right for orthodontic treatment

Dr RJ Jackson
For years orthodontics have been a ldquoreactiverdquo profession Parents would slowly watch their childrsquos teeth go from bad to worse while waiting for the baby teeth to fall out then finally visit an orthodontist for a set of braces Today orthodontics has evolved into a ldquoprevention focusedrdquo profession Longterm research studies have proven that preventing a problem from occurring is better than allowing the problem to occur and then fixing it The American Association of Orthodontics (AAO) and the American Board of Orthodontics (ABO) both recommend every child have an evaluation no later than age 7 Timing is of the essence because the ability to correct certain problems greatly diminishes as the child develops over time
Early detection and correction can also prevent future extractions improve self-esteem decrease the overall cost of orthodontic treatment and decrease the chances of dental complications later on Another benefit of early correction includes
improved stability which decreases the likelihood of teeth shifting back to the original improper position later in life

Submitted by Tom Henry Community Relations at Longhorn Village April is not only National
Food Month but indeed celebrates a plethora of glorious favorite provisions of the masses including but not limited to National Brussels Sprouts and Cabbage Month National BLT Sandwich Month Cranberries and Gooseberries Pecans Garlic Soft Pretzels Grilled Cheese Sandwiches Soy Foods Tomatillos and Asian Pears Fresh Florida Tomatoesndash the delicacies commemorated in the month of April alone could provide endless nourishment for the most refined of palates In recognition of this great bounty of naturersquos goodness my quest to do justice by this article begins and ends with one of the finest purveyors of exquisite cuisine in our neighborhood
Chef de Cuisine Joel Jones of Longhorn Village has the creative genius and savoir faire worthy of Michelin Star recognition (in my very humble opinion ndash I just rented the movie ldquoBurntrdquo with my wife so I know about these things) Joel worked his way through the industry starting at age 13 washing dishes at a small pizza house in
Illinois He was hired by Omni Hotels and quickly ascended from Line Cook to Executive Sous-chef in just 4 years
His th i r s t for the complex ability to not just please but delight the vast variety of culinary explorers living within Longhorn Village is quite
simply unparalleledWith a ldquoPlow to Platerdquo philosophy dining selections are prepared
with only the finest local ingredients whenever possible Having full control of the menu Chef Joel selects his produce from local growers who deliver 6 days a week Beef selections are Prime Grade from local ranchers and Spirits are offered from Texas distilleries Fresh fish deliveries are made 3 days per week and most offerings come from The Gulf including the shrimp and lobster
April is National Food Month

Of course the creative genius within inspires him to constantly reach for new and exotic delights including elk antelope crab-stuffed f lounder Northern Pacif ic halibut and Maine lobster
He offers his staff the same opportunities to explore their creative talents by encouraging them to prepare samplings for the team to experience and if they make the grade will be presented on the menu Each evening the fine dining crew assembles for a ldquofamily mealrdquo tasting of the selections of the night (yep just like in the movie)
Chef Joel also embraces critique from The Culinary Committee which is made up of Longhorn Village residents who offer feedback at regular monthly meetings All resident input and comments whether positive or negative are read daily to staff members and are published to The Culinary Council for review
Dietary restrictions preferences or choices are known on an individual basis to allow each resident to enjoy the full dining experience without having to explain or make special requests
Another closely held philosophy spread throughout his team is an emphasis on full flavor portion controlled options that allow for a greater individual choice plated in small or regular sizes
I have had the great pleasure of working with Chef Joel and presenting his distinguished
works of art at business meetings all over the Austin area It has become common for my clients to ask when I schedule a lunch meeting if it will be prepared by our Chef again I often tell him he makes my work not only easier but that there is a sense of pride in knowing I will be greeted at the door with anticipation and a sense of admiration knowing my presentation will be remembered for his creative talent
A good cook is a peculiar gift of the gods He must be a perfect creature from the brain to the palate from the palate to the fingerrsquos end ndash Walter Savage Landor

News You Can Use
Submitted by Shelley Coleman MA LPC-SRecently I was fortunate to have the opportunity to speak to
the Canyon Ridge Middle School PTA members at their monthly meeting Specifically I was asked to speak on Anxiety and Children As a parent of a middle school child and therapy provider for adolescents this subject is more than relevant to me
In my therapy practice and in my home I see the increasing social and academic pressures for our kids Recently a poll conducted by NPR along with the Robert Wood Johnson Foundation and the Harvard School of Public Health found that nearly 40 of parents said their high school kids are experiencing a lot of stress from school Specifically longer homework sessions high stakes testing and more competitive college admissions are the drivers In my own school district and community the options for extracurriculars are countless and the sizeable academic menu of choices is growing
I realize that my children are incredibly fortunate to have these amazing opportunities I also realize that with great opportunity comes great responsibility How can I help my child find the balance between exposure to these resources and the ability to manage their schedules without creating an environment that is overwhelming and anxiety provoking
These are questions of course that families have to answer for themselves Just as individual families have varying priorities children vary on the types of schedules they can manage
To be sure adolescence is an anxious time As a parent we can play a key role in how our children experience anxiety Some things we can do as parents arebull Recognizeandhelpchildrenidentifyanxiousfeelingsbull Helpchildrendevelopcopingstrategiesbull Expresspositiveandrealisticexpectationsbull Validatefeelingsbutdonrsquotempowerthembull Encouragetoleranceofanxiousfeelingsbull ModelhealthywaysofmanagingstressandanxietyBy helping our children to identify and express their anxious
feelings we can begin to address concerns Like all uncomfortable emotions anxiety is a normal response that serves a purpose Helping our children label and express their feelings can be anxiety reducing Learning to recognize express tolerate and manage anxiety is a priceless skill As role models for our children coping with our own stress and anxiety can serve as a valuable example
Parents can model good stress management by making sleep nutrition and exercise a priority We can learn to recognize our personal limits for demands of our time and resources and set healthy boundaries And when indicated we can utilize professional resources like school counselors or independent therapists
If you think your child may have an issue with anxiety there are several symptoms you may notice Behaviorally teens may engage in unhealthy coping behaviors such as drug and alcohol use They may limit or avoid activities in an attempt to reduce anxiety Physically
Adolescents and Anxietyteens may report sleep disturbances headaches stomach aches or symptoms such as racing heart dizziness and muscle tension You may notice that symptoms are consistently very intense and go on for a long period of time Contacting a professional therapist can be of value in assessing the severity of the anxiety and determining if counseling is indicated
As parents we are instrumental in helping our children become healthy resilient individuals By setting realistic expectations and helping our children to prioritize their schedules we can teach them to set healthy limits and not over extend themselves We can teach them to tolerate and manage their own anxiety And when necessary we can seek out professional help

YOUR BRACES WITH DR JACKSON
Dr RJ Jackson
For years orthodontics have been a ldquoreactiverdquo profession Parents would slowly watch their childrsquos teeth go from bad to worse while waiting for the baby teeth to fall out then finally visit an orthodontist for a set of braces Today orthodontics has evolved into a ldquoprevention focusedrdquo profession Longterm research studies have proven that preventing a problem from occurring is better than allowing the problem to occur and then fixing it The American Association of Orthodontics (AAO) and the American Board of Orthodontics (ABO) both recommend every child have an evaluation no later than age 7 Timing is of the essence because the ability to correct certain problems greatly diminishes as the child develops over time
Early detection and correction can also prevent future extractions improve self-esteem decrease the overall cost of orthodontic treatment and decrease the chances of dental complications later on Another benefit of early correction includes
improved stability which decreases the likelihood of teeth shifting back to the original improper position later in life
Although there are many benefits to treatment at an early age it is not recommended for every child Children treated unnecessarily can negatively impact their dental health and increase the total overall expenses for parentsThis is one reason it is imperative for parents to choose a board-certified orthodontist for treatment A board certified orthodontist has demonstrated competence and is held accountable for their work by the American Board of Orthodontics Only 1 out of 3 orthodontists are board-certified so do not make the mistake of assuming an orthodontist holds this recognition Your board-certified orthodontist will inform you if the time is right for orthodontic treatment
Contact RJ Orthodontics today to schedule a complimentary examination with a board-certified orthodontist

Submitted by Tom Henry Community Relations at Longhorn Village April is not only National
Food Month but indeed celebrates a plethora of glorious favorite provisions of the masses including but not limited to National Brussels Sprouts and Cabbage Month National BLT Sandwich Month Cranberries and Gooseberries Pecans Garlic Soft Pretzels Grilled Cheese Sandwiches Soy Foods Tomatillos and Asian Pears Fresh Florida Tomatoesndash the delicacies commemorated in the month of April alone could provide endless nourishment for the most refined of palates In recognition of this great bounty of naturersquos goodness my quest to do justice by this article begins and ends with one of the finest purveyors of exquisite cuisine in our neighborhood
Chef de Cuisine Joel Jones of Longhorn Village has the creative genius and savoir faire worthy of Michelin Star recognition (in my very humble opinion ndash I just rented the movie ldquoBurntrdquo with my wife so I know about these things) Joel worked his way through the industry starting at age 13 washing dishes at a small pizza house in
Illinois He was hired by Omni Hotels and quickly ascended from Line Cook to Executive Sous-chef in just 4 years
His th i r s t for the complex ability to not just please but delight the vast variety of culinary explorers living within Longhorn Village is quite
simply unparalleledWith a ldquoPlow to Platerdquo philosophy dining selections are prepared
with only the finest local ingredients whenever possible Having full control of the menu Chef Joel selects his produce from local growers who deliver 6 days a week Beef selections are Prime Grade from local ranchers and Spirits are offered from Texas distilleries Fresh fish deliveries are made 3 days per week and most offerings come from The Gulf including the shrimp and lobster
April is National Food Month

Of course the creative genius within inspires him to constantly reach for new and exotic delights including elk antelope crab-stuffed f lounder Northern Pacif ic halibut and Maine lobster
He offers his staff the same opportunities to explore their creative talents by encouraging them to prepare samplings for the team to experience and if they make the grade will be presented on the menu Each evening the fine dining crew assembles for a ldquofamily mealrdquo tasting of the selections of the night (yep just like in the movie)
Chef Joel also embraces critique from The Culinary Committee which is made up of Longhorn Village residents who offer feedback at regular monthly meetings All resident input and comments whether positive or negative are read daily to staff members and are published to The Culinary Council for review
Dietary restrictions preferences or choices are known on an individual basis to allow each resident to enjoy the full dining experience without having to explain or make special requests
Another closely held philosophy spread throughout his team is an emphasis on full flavor portion controlled options that allow for a greater individual choice plated in small or regular sizes
I have had the great pleasure of working with Chef Joel and presenting his distinguished
works of art at business meetings all over the Austin area It has become common for my clients to ask when I schedule a lunch meeting if it will be prepared by our Chef again I often tell him he makes my work not only easier but that there is a sense of pride in knowing I will be greeted at the door with anticipation and a sense of admiration knowing my presentation will be remembered for his creative talent
A good cook is a peculiar gift of the gods He must be a perfect creature from the brain to the palate from the palate to the fingerrsquos end ndash Walter Savage Landor

Submitted by Shelley Coleman MA LPC-SRecently I was fortunate to have the opportunity to speak to
the Canyon Ridge Middle School PTA members at their monthly meeting Specifically I was asked to speak on Anxiety and Children As a parent of a middle school child and therapy provider for adolescents this subject is more than relevant to me
In my therapy practice and in my home I see the increasing social and academic pressures for our kids Recently a poll conducted by NPR along with the Robert Wood Johnson Foundation and the Harvard School of Public Health found that nearly 40 of parents said their high school kids are experiencing a lot of stress from school Specifically longer homework sessions high stakes testing and more competitive college admissions are the drivers In my own school district and community the options for extracurriculars are countless and the sizeable academic menu of choices is growing
I realize that my children are incredibly fortunate to have these amazing opportunities I also realize that with great opportunity comes great responsibility How can I help my child find the balance between exposure to these resources and the ability to manage their schedules without creating an environment that is overwhelming and anxiety provoking
These are questions of course that families have to answer for themselves Just as individual families have varying priorities children vary on the types of schedules they can manage
To be sure adolescence is an anxious time As a parent we can play a key role in how our children experience anxiety Some things we can do as parents arebull Recognizeandhelpchildrenidentifyanxiousfeelingsbull Helpchildrendevelopcopingstrategiesbull Expresspositiveandrealisticexpectationsbull Validatefeelingsbutdonrsquotempowerthembull Encouragetoleranceofanxiousfeelingsbull ModelhealthywaysofmanagingstressandanxietyBy helping our children to identify and express their anxious
feelings we can begin to address concerns Like all uncomfortable emotions anxiety is a normal response that serves a purpose Helping our children label and express their feelings can be anxiety reducing Learning to recognize express tolerate and manage anxiety is a priceless skill As role models for our children coping with our own stress and anxiety can serve as a valuable example
Parents can model good stress management by making sleep nutrition and exercise a priority We can learn to recognize our personal limits for demands of our time and resources and set healthy boundaries And when indicated we can utilize professional resources like school counselors or independent therapists
If you think your child may have an issue with anxiety there are several symptoms you may notice Behaviorally teens may engage in unhealthy coping behaviors such as drug and alcohol use They may limit or avoid activities in an attempt to reduce anxiety Physically
Adolescents and Anxietyteens may report sleep disturbances headaches stomach aches or symptoms such as racing heart dizziness and muscle tension You may notice that symptoms are consistently very intense and go on for a long period of time Contacting a professional therapist can be of value in assessing the severity of the anxiety and determining if counseling is indicated
As parents we are instrumental in helping our children become healthy resilient individuals By setting realistic expectations and helping our children to prioritize their schedules we can teach them to set healthy limits and not over extend themselves We can teach them to tolerate and manage their own anxiety And when necessary we can seek out professional help

Use the below information to determine what gardening tasks you want to accomplish this month
PlanningWhen purchasing bedding annuals this spring choose properly
grown plants with good color Buy plants with well-developed root systems that are vigorous but not too large for their pots Plants that bloom in the pack are often root bound and can be set back for several weeks after being transplanted Plants not yet in bloom will actually bloom sooner be better established and grow faster
For hot-weather color select one of the following Gloriosa Daisy Madagascar Periwinkle Ornamental Peppers Mexican Zinnia or Amaranthus Josephs Coat Plan to attract hummingbirds to your garden this year by planting red or orange flowers Monarda (common names beebalm horsemint Oswego tea and bergamot) is a good perennial plant that thrives in sun and provides nectar for these small birds

For years orthodontics have been a ldquoreactiverdquo profession Parents would slowly watch their childrsquos teeth go from bad to worse while waiting for the baby teeth to fall out then finally visit an orthodontist for a set of braces Today orthodontics has evolved into a ldquoprevention focusedrdquo profession Longterm research studies have proven that preventing a problem from occurring is better than allowing the problem to occur and then fixing it The American Association of Orthodontics (AAO) and the American Board of Orthodontics (ABO) both recommend every child have an evaluation no later than age 7 Timing is of the essence because the ability to correct certain problems greatly diminishes as the child develops over time
Early detection and correction can also prevent future extractions improve self-esteem decrease the overall cost of orthodontic treatment and decrease the chances of dental complications later on Another benefit of early correction includes
improved stability which decreases the likelihood of teeth shifting back to the original improper position later in life
Although there are many benefits to treatment at an early age it is not recommended for every child Children treated unnecessarily can negatively impact their dental health and increase the total overall expenses for parentsThis is one reason it is imperative for parents to choose a board-certified orthodontist for treatment A board certified orthodontist has demonstrated competence and is held accountable for their work by the American Board of Orthodontics Only 1 out of 3 orthodontists are board-certified so do not make the mistake of assuming an orthodontist holds this recognition Your board-certified orthodontist will inform you if the time is right for orthodontic treatment
Contact RJ Orthodontics today to schedule a complimentary examination with a board-certified orthodontist

Submitted by Tom Henry Community Relations at Longhorn Village April is not only National
Food Month but indeed celebrates a plethora of glorious favorite provisions of the masses including but not limited to National Brussels Sprouts and Cabbage Month National BLT Sandwich Month Cranberries and Gooseberries Pecans Garlic Soft Pretzels Grilled Cheese Sandwiches Soy Foods Tomatillos and Asian Pears Fresh Florida Tomatoesndash the delicacies commemorated in the month of April alone could provide endless nourishment for the most refined of palates In recognition of this great bounty of naturersquos goodness my quest to do justice by this article begins and ends with one of the finest purveyors of exquisite cuisine in our neighborhood
Chef de Cuisine Joel Jones of Longhorn Village has the creative genius and savoir faire worthy of Michelin Star recognition (in my very humble opinion ndash I just rented the movie ldquoBurntrdquo with my wife so I know about these things) Joel worked his way through the industry starting at age 13 washing dishes at a small pizza house in
Illinois He was hired by Omni Hotels and quickly ascended from Line Cook to Executive Sous-chef in just 4 years
His th i r s t for the complex ability to not just please but delight the vast variety of culinary explorers living within Longhorn Village is quite
simply unparalleledWith a ldquoPlow to Platerdquo philosophy dining selections are prepared
with only the finest local ingredients whenever possible Having full control of the menu Chef Joel selects his produce from local growers who deliver 6 days a week Beef selections are Prime Grade from local ranchers and Spirits are offered from Texas distilleries Fresh fish deliveries are made 3 days per week and most offerings come from The Gulf including the shrimp and lobster
April is National Food Month

Of course the creative genius within inspires him to constantly reach for new and exotic delights including elk antelope crab-stuffed f lounder Northern Pacif ic halibut and Maine lobster
He offers his staff the same opportunities to explore their creative talents by encouraging them to prepare samplings for the team to experience and if they make the grade will be presented on the menu Each evening the fine dining crew assembles for a ldquofamily mealrdquo tasting of the selections of the night (yep just like in the movie)
Chef Joel also embraces critique from The Culinary Committee which is made up of Longhorn Village residents who offer feedback at regular monthly meetings All resident input and comments whether positive or negative are read daily to staff members and are published to The Culinary Council for review
Dietary restrictions preferences or choices are known on an individual basis to allow each resident to enjoy the full dining experience without having to explain or make special requests
Another closely held philosophy spread throughout his team is an emphasis on full flavor portion controlled options that allow for a greater individual choice plated in small or regular sizes
I have had the great pleasure of working with Chef Joel and presenting his distinguished
works of art at business meetings all over the Austin area It has become common for my clients to ask when I schedule a lunch meeting if it will be prepared by our Chef again I often tell him he makes my work not only easier but that there is a sense of pride in knowing I will be greeted at the door with anticipation and a sense of admiration knowing my presentation will be remembered for his creative talent
A good cook is a peculiar gift of the gods He must be a perfect creature from the brain to the palate from the palate to the fingerrsquos end ndash Walter Savage Landor

News You Can Use
Submitted by Shelley Coleman MA LPC-SRecently I was fortunate to have the opportunity to speak to
the Canyon Ridge Middle School PTA members at their monthly meeting Specifically I was asked to speak on Anxiety and Children As a parent of a middle school child and therapy provider for adolescents this subject is more than relevant to me
In my therapy practice and in my home I see the increasing social and academic pressures for our kids Recently a poll conducted by NPR along with the Robert Wood Johnson Foundation and the Harvard School of Public Health found that nearly 40 of parents said their high school kids are experiencing a lot of stress from school Specifically longer homework sessions high stakes testing and more competitive college admissions are the drivers In my own school district and community the options for extracurriculars are countless and the sizeable academic menu of choices is growing
I realize that my children are incredibly fortunate to have these amazing opportunities I also realize that with great opportunity comes great responsibility How can I help my child find the balance between exposure to these resources and the ability to manage their schedules without creating an environment that is overwhelming and anxiety provoking
These are questions of course that families have to answer for themselves Just as individual families have varying priorities children vary on the types of schedules they can manage
To be sure adolescence is an anxious time As a parent we can play a key role in how our children experience anxiety Some things we can do as parents arebull Recognizeandhelpchildrenidentifyanxiousfeelingsbull Helpchildrendevelopcopingstrategiesbull Expresspositiveandrealisticexpectationsbull Validatefeelingsbutdonrsquotempowerthembull Encouragetoleranceofanxiousfeelingsbull ModelhealthywaysofmanagingstressandanxietyBy helping our children to identify and express their anxious
feelings we can begin to address concerns Like all uncomfortable emotions anxiety is a normal response that serves a purpose Helping our children label and express their feelings can be anxiety reducing Learning to recognize express tolerate and manage anxiety is a priceless skill As role models for our children coping with our own stress and anxiety can serve as a valuable example
Parents can model good stress management by making sleep nutrition and exercise a priority We can learn to recognize our personal limits for demands of our time and resources and set healthy boundaries And when indicated we can utilize professional resources like school counselors or independent therapists
If you think your child may have an issue with anxiety there are several symptoms you may notice Behaviorally teens may engage in unhealthy coping behaviors such as drug and alcohol use They may limit or avoid activities in an attempt to reduce anxiety Physically
Adolescents and Anxietyteens may report sleep disturbances headaches stomach aches or symptoms such as racing heart dizziness and muscle tension You may notice that symptoms are consistently very intense and go on for a long period of time Contacting a professional therapist can be of value in assessing the severity of the anxiety and determining if counseling is indicated
As parents we are instrumental in helping our children become healthy resilient individuals By setting realistic expectations and helping our children to prioritize their schedules we can teach them to set healthy limits and not over extend themselves We can teach them to tolerate and manage their own anxiety And when necessary we can seek out professional help

April Gardening TipsOffered by WeekendGardenerNet
Use the below information to determine what gardening tasks you want to accomplish this month
PlanningWhen purchasing bedding annuals this spring choose properly
grown plants with good color Buy plants with well-developed root systems that are vigorous but not too large for their pots Plants that bloom in the pack are often root bound and can be set back for several weeks after being transplanted Plants not yet in bloom will actually bloom sooner be better established and grow faster
For hot-weather color select one of the following Gloriosa Daisy Madagascar Periwinkle Ornamental Peppers Mexican Zinnia or Amaranthus Josephs Coat Plan to attract hummingbirds to your garden this year by planting red or orange flowers Monarda (common names beebalm horsemint Oswego tea and bergamot) is a good perennial plant that thrives in sun and provides nectar for these small birds

Dr RJ Jackson
For years orthodontics have been a ldquoreactiverdquo profession Parents would slowly watch their childrsquos teeth go from bad to worse while waiting for the baby teeth to fall out then finally visit an orthodontist for a set of braces Today orthodontics has evolved into a ldquoprevention focusedrdquo profession Longterm research studies have proven that preventing a problem from occurring is better than allowing the problem to occur and then fixing it The American Association of Orthodontics (AAO) and the American Board of Orthodontics (ABO) both recommend every child have an evaluation no later than age 7 Timing is of the essence because the ability to correct certain problems greatly diminishes as the child develops over time
Early detection and correction can also prevent future extractions improve self-esteem decrease the overall cost of orthodontic treatment and decrease the chances of dental complications later on Another benefit of early correction includes
improved stability which decreases the likelihood of teeth shifting back to the original improper position later in life
Although there are many benefits to treatment at an early age it is not recommended for every child Children treated unnecessarily can negatively impact their dental health and increase the total overall expenses for parentsThis is one reason it is imperative for parents to choose a board-certified orthodontist for treatment A board certified orthodontist has demonstrated competence and is held accountable for their work by the American Board of Orthodontics Only 1 out of 3 orthodontists are board-certified so do not make the mistake of assuming an orthodontist holds this recognition Your board-certified orthodontist will inform you if the time is right for orthodontic treatment
Contact RJ Orthodontics today to schedule a complimentary examination with a board-certified orthodontist

Submitted by Tom Henry Community Relations at Longhorn Village April is not only National
Food Month but indeed celebrates a plethora of glorious favorite provisions of the masses including but not limited to National Brussels Sprouts and Cabbage Month National BLT Sandwich Month Cranberries and Gooseberries Pecans Garlic Soft Pretzels Grilled Cheese Sandwiches Soy Foods Tomatillos and Asian Pears Fresh Florida Tomatoesndash the delicacies commemorated in the month of April alone could provide endless nourishment for the most refined of palates In recognition of this great bounty of naturersquos goodness my quest to do justice by this article begins and ends with one of the finest purveyors of exquisite cuisine in our neighborhood
Chef de Cuisine Joel Jones of Longhorn Village has the creative genius and savoir faire worthy of Michelin Star recognition (in my very humble opinion ndash I just rented the movie ldquoBurntrdquo with my wife so I know about these things) Joel worked his way through the industry starting at age 13 washing dishes at a small pizza house in
Illinois He was hired by Omni Hotels and quickly ascended from Line Cook to Executive Sous-chef in just 4 years
His th i r s t for the complex ability to not just please but delight the vast variety of culinary explorers living within Longhorn Village is quite
simply unparalleledWith a ldquoPlow to Platerdquo philosophy dining selections are prepared
with only the finest local ingredients whenever possible Having full control of the menu Chef Joel selects his produce from local growers who deliver 6 days a week Beef selections are Prime Grade from local ranchers and Spirits are offered from Texas distilleries Fresh fish deliveries are made 3 days per week and most offerings come from The Gulf including the shrimp and lobster
April is National Food Month

Of course the creative genius within inspires him to constantly reach for new and exotic delights including elk antelope crab-stuffed f lounder Northern Pacif ic halibut and Maine lobster
He offers his staff the same opportunities to explore their creative talents by encouraging them to prepare samplings for the team to experience and if they make the grade will be presented on the menu Each evening the fine dining crew assembles for a ldquofamily mealrdquo tasting of the selections of the night (yep just like in the movie)
Chef Joel also embraces critique from The Culinary Committee which is made up of Longhorn Village residents who offer feedback at regular monthly meetings All resident input and comments whether positive or negative are read daily to staff members and are published to The Culinary Council for review
Dietary restrictions preferences or choices are known on an individual basis to allow each resident to enjoy the full dining experience without having to explain or make special requests
Another closely held philosophy spread throughout his team is an emphasis on full flavor portion controlled options that allow for a greater individual choice plated in small or regular sizes
I have had the great pleasure of working with Chef Joel and presenting his distinguished
works of art at business meetings all over the Austin area It has become common for my clients to ask when I schedule a lunch meeting if it will be prepared by our Chef again I often tell him he makes my work not only easier but that there is a sense of pride in knowing I will be greeted at the door with anticipation and a sense of admiration knowing my presentation will be remembered for his creative talent
A good cook is a peculiar gift of the gods He must be a perfect creature from the brain to the palate from the palate to the fingerrsquos end ndash Walter Savage Landor

News You Can Use
Submitted by Shelley Coleman MA LPC-SRecently I was fortunate to have the opportunity to speak to
the Canyon Ridge Middle School PTA members at their monthly meeting Specifically I was asked to speak on Anxiety and Children As a parent of a middle school child and therapy provider for adolescents this subject is more than relevant to me
In my therapy practice and in my home I see the increasing social and academic pressures for our kids Recently a poll conducted by NPR along with the Robert Wood Johnson Foundation and the Harvard School of Public Health found that nearly 40 of parents said their high school kids are experiencing a lot of stress from school Specifically longer homework sessions high stakes testing and more competitive college admissions are the drivers In my own school district and community the options for extracurriculars are countless and the sizeable academic menu of choices is growing
I realize that my children are incredibly fortunate to have these amazing opportunities I also realize that with great opportunity comes great responsibility How can I help my child find the balance between exposure to these resources and the ability to manage their schedules without creating an environment that is overwhelming and anxiety provoking
These are questions of course that families have to answer for themselves Just as individual families have varying priorities children vary on the types of schedules they can manage
To be sure adolescence is an anxious time As a parent we can play a key role in how our children experience anxiety Some things we can do as parents arebull Recognizeandhelpchildrenidentifyanxiousfeelingsbull Helpchildrendevelopcopingstrategiesbull Expresspositiveandrealisticexpectationsbull Validatefeelingsbutdonrsquotempowerthembull Encouragetoleranceofanxiousfeelingsbull ModelhealthywaysofmanagingstressandanxietyBy helping our children to identify and express their anxious
feelings we can begin to address concerns Like all uncomfortable emotions anxiety is a normal response that serves a purpose Helping our children label and express their feelings can be anxiety reducing Learning to recognize express tolerate and manage anxiety is a priceless skill As role models for our children coping with our own stress and anxiety can serve as a valuable example
Parents can model good stress management by making sleep nutrition and exercise a priority We can learn to recognize our personal limits for demands of our time and resources and set healthy boundaries And when indicated we can utilize professional resources like school counselors or independent therapists
If you think your child may have an issue with anxiety there are several symptoms you may notice Behaviorally teens may engage in unhealthy coping behaviors such as drug and alcohol use They may limit or avoid activities in an attempt to reduce anxiety Physically
Adolescents and Anxietyteens may report sleep disturbances headaches stomach aches or symptoms such as racing heart dizziness and muscle tension You may notice that symptoms are consistently very intense and go on for a long period of time Contacting a professional therapist can be of value in assessing the severity of the anxiety and determining if counseling is indicated
As parents we are instrumental in helping our children become healthy resilient individuals By setting realistic expectations and helping our children to prioritize their schedules we can teach them to set healthy limits and not over extend themselves We can teach them to tolerate and manage their own anxiety And when necessary we can seek out professional help

Dr RJ Jackson
For years orthodontics have been a ldquoreactiverdquo profession Parents would slowly watch their childrsquos teeth go from bad to worse while waiting for the baby teeth to fall out then finally visit an orthodontist for a set of braces Today orthodontics has evolved into a ldquoprevention focusedrdquo profession Longterm research studies have proven that preventing a problem from occurring is better than allowing the problem to occur and then fixing it The American Association of Orthodontics (AAO) and the American Board of Orthodontics (ABO) both recommend every child have an evaluation no later than age 7 Timing is of the essence because the ability to correct certain problems greatly diminishes as the child develops over time
Early detection and correction can also prevent future extractions improve self-esteem decrease the overall cost of orthodontic treatment and decrease the chances of dental complications later on Another benefit of early correction includes
improved stability which decreases the likelihood of teeth shifting back to the original improper position later in life
Although there are many benefits to treatment at an early age it is not recommended for every child Children treated unnecessarily can negatively impact their dental health and increase the total overall expenses for parentsThis is one reason it is imperative for parents to choose a board-certified orthodontist for treatment A board certified orthodontist has demonstrated competence and is held accountable for their work by the American Board of Orthodontics Only 1 out of 3 orthodontists are board-certified so do not make the mistake of assuming an orthodontist holds this recognition Your board-certified orthodontist will inform you if the time is right for orthodontic treatment
Contact RJ Orthodontics today to schedule a complimentary examination with a board-certified orthodontist

Submitted by Tom Henry Community Relations at Longhorn Village April is not only National
Food Month but indeed celebrates a plethora of glorious favorite provisions of the masses including but not limited to National Brussels Sprouts and Cabbage Month National BLT Sandwich Month Cranberries and Gooseberries Pecans Garlic Soft Pretzels Grilled Cheese Sandwiches Soy Foods Tomatillos and Asian Pears Fresh Florida Tomatoesndash the delicacies commemorated in the month of April alone could provide endless nourishment for the most refined of palates In recognition of this great bounty of naturersquos goodness my quest to do justice by this article begins and ends with one of the finest purveyors of exquisite cuisine in our neighborhood
Chef de Cuisine Joel Jones of Longhorn Village has the creative genius and savoir faire worthy of Michelin Star recognition (in my very humble opinion ndash I just rented the movie ldquoBurntrdquo with my wife so I know about these things) Joel worked his way through the industry starting at age 13 washing dishes at a small pizza house in
Illinois He was hired by Omni Hotels and quickly ascended from Line Cook to Executive Sous-chef in just 4 years
His th i r s t for the complex ability to not just please but delight the vast variety of culinary explorers living within Longhorn Village is quite
simply unparalleledWith a ldquoPlow to Platerdquo philosophy dining selections are prepared
with only the finest local ingredients whenever possible Having full control of the menu Chef Joel selects his produce from local growers who deliver 6 days a week Beef selections are Prime Grade from local ranchers and Spirits are offered from Texas distilleries Fresh fish deliveries are made 3 days per week and most offerings come from The Gulf including the shrimp and lobster
April is National Food Month

Of course the creative genius within inspires him to constantly reach for new and exotic delights including elk antelope crab-stuffed f lounder Northern Pacif ic halibut and Maine lobster
He offers his staff the same opportunities to explore their creative talents by encouraging them to prepare samplings for the team to experience and if they make the grade will be presented on the menu Each evening the fine dining crew assembles for a ldquofamily mealrdquo tasting of the selections of the night (yep just like in the movie)
Chef Joel also embraces critique from The Culinary Committee which is made up of Longhorn Village residents who offer feedback at regular monthly meetings All resident input and comments whether positive or negative are read daily to staff members and are published to The Culinary Council for review
Dietary restrictions preferences or choices are known on an individual basis to allow each resident to enjoy the full dining experience without having to explain or make special requests
Another closely held philosophy spread throughout his team is an emphasis on full flavor portion controlled options that allow for a greater individual choice plated in small or regular sizes
I have had the great pleasure of working with Chef Joel and presenting his distinguished
works of art at business meetings all over the Austin area It has become common for my clients to ask when I schedule a lunch meeting if it will be prepared by our Chef again I often tell him he makes my work not only easier but that there is a sense of pride in knowing I will be greeted at the door with anticipation and a sense of admiration knowing my presentation will be remembered for his creative talent
A good cook is a peculiar gift of the gods He must be a perfect creature from the brain to the palate from the palate to the fingerrsquos end ndash Walter Savage Landor

News You Can Use
Submitted by Shelley Coleman MA LPC-SRecently I was fortunate to have the opportunity to speak to
the Canyon Ridge Middle School PTA members at their monthly meeting Specifically I was asked to speak on Anxiety and Children As a parent of a middle school child and therapy provider for adolescents this subject is more than relevant to me
In my therapy practice and in my home I see the increasing social and academic pressures for our kids Recently a poll conducted by NPR along with the Robert Wood Johnson Foundation and the Harvard School of Public Health found that nearly 40 of parents said their high school kids are experiencing a lot of stress from school Specifically longer homework sessions high stakes testing and more competitive college admissions are the drivers In my own school district and community the options for extracurriculars are countless and the sizeable academic menu of choices is growing
I realize that my children are incredibly fortunate to have these amazing opportunities I also realize that with great opportunity comes great responsibility How can I help my child find the balance between exposure to these resources and the ability to manage their schedules without creating an environment that is overwhelming and anxiety provoking
These are questions of course that families have to answer for themselves Just as individual families have varying priorities children vary on the types of schedules they can manage
To be sure adolescence is an anxious time As a parent we can play a key role in how our children experience anxiety Some things we can do as parents arebull Recognizeandhelpchildrenidentifyanxiousfeelingsbull Helpchildrendevelopcopingstrategiesbull Expresspositiveandrealisticexpectationsbull Validatefeelingsbutdonrsquotempowerthembull Encouragetoleranceofanxiousfeelingsbull ModelhealthywaysofmanagingstressandanxietyBy helping our children to identify and express their anxious
feelings we can begin to address concerns Like all uncomfortable emotions anxiety is a normal response that serves a purpose Helping our children label and express their feelings can be anxiety reducing Learning to recognize express tolerate and manage anxiety is a priceless skill As role models for our children coping with our own stress and anxiety can serve as a valuable example
Parents can model good stress management by making sleep nutrition and exercise a priority We can learn to recognize our personal limits for demands of our time and resources and set healthy boundaries And when indicated we can utilize professional resources like school counselors or independent therapists
If you think your child may have an issue with anxiety there are several symptoms you may notice Behaviorally teens may engage in unhealthy coping behaviors such as drug and alcohol use They may limit or avoid activities in an attempt to reduce anxiety Physically
Adolescents and Anxietyteens may report sleep disturbances headaches stomach aches or symptoms such as racing heart dizziness and muscle tension You may notice that symptoms are consistently very intense and go on for a long period of time Contacting a professional therapist can be of value in assessing the severity of the anxiety and determining if counseling is indicated
As parents we are instrumental in helping our children become healthy resilient individuals By setting realistic expectations and helping our children to prioritize their schedules we can teach them to set healthy limits and not over extend themselves We can teach them to tolerate and manage their own anxiety And when necessary we can seek out professional help

PlanningWhen purchasing bedding annuals this spring choose properly
grown plants with good color Buy plants with well-developed root systems that are vigorous but not too large for their pots Plants that bloom in the pack are often root bound and can be set back for several weeks after being transplanted Plants not yet in bloom will actually bloom sooner be better established and grow faster
For hot-weather color select one of the following Gloriosa Daisy Madagascar Periwinkle Ornamental Peppers Mexican Zinnia or Amaranthus Josephs Coat Plan to attract hummingbirds to your garden this year by planting red or orange flowers Monarda (common names beebalm horsemint Oswego tea and bergamot) is a good perennial plant that thrives in sun and provides nectar for these small birds

Dr RJ Jackson
For years orthodontics have been a ldquoreactiverdquo profession Parents would slowly watch their childrsquos teeth go from bad to worse while waiting for the baby teeth to fall out then finally visit an orthodontist for a set of braces Today orthodontics has evolved into a ldquoprevention focusedrdquo profession Longterm research studies have proven that preventing a problem from occurring is better than allowing the problem to occur and then fixing it The American Association of Orthodontics (AAO) and the American Board of Orthodontics (ABO) both recommend every child have an evaluation no later than age 7 Timing is of the essence because the ability to correct certain problems greatly diminishes as the child develops over time
Early detection and correction can also prevent future extractions improve self-esteem decrease the overall cost of orthodontic treatment and decrease the chances of dental complications later on Another benefit of early correction includes
improved stability which decreases the likelihood of teeth shifting back to the original improper position later in life
Although there are many benefits to treatment at an early age it is not recommended for every child Children treated unnecessarily can negatively impact their dental health and increase the total overall expenses for parentsThis is one reason it is imperative for parents to choose a board-certified orthodontist for treatment A board certified orthodontist has demonstrated competence and is held accountable for their work by the American Board of Orthodontics Only 1 out of 3 orthodontists are board-certified so do not make the mistake of assuming an orthodontist holds this recognition Your board-certified orthodontist will inform you if the time is right for orthodontic treatment
Contact RJ Orthodontics today to schedule a complimentary examination with a board-certified orthodontist

Submitted by Tom Henry Community Relations at Longhorn Village April is not only National
Food Month but indeed celebrates a plethora of glorious favorite provisions of the masses including but not limited to National Brussels Sprouts and Cabbage Month National BLT Sandwich Month Cranberries and Gooseberries Pecans Garlic Soft Pretzels Grilled Cheese Sandwiches Soy Foods Tomatillos and Asian Pears Fresh Florida Tomatoesndash the delicacies commemorated in the month of April alone could provide endless nourishment for the most refined of palates In recognition of this great bounty of naturersquos goodness my quest to do justice by this article begins and ends with one of the finest purveyors of exquisite cuisine in our neighborhood
Chef de Cuisine Joel Jones of Longhorn Village has the creative genius and savoir faire worthy of Michelin Star recognition (in my very humble opinion ndash I just rented the movie ldquoBurntrdquo with my wife so I know about these things) Joel worked his way through the industry starting at age 13 washing dishes at a small pizza house in
Illinois He was hired by Omni Hotels and quickly ascended from Line Cook to Executive Sous-chef in just 4 years
His th i r s t for the complex ability to not just please but delight the vast variety of culinary explorers living within Longhorn Village is quite
simply unparalleledWith a ldquoPlow to Platerdquo philosophy dining selections are prepared
with only the finest local ingredients whenever possible Having full control of the menu Chef Joel selects his produce from local growers who deliver 6 days a week Beef selections are Prime Grade from local ranchers and Spirits are offered from Texas distilleries Fresh fish deliveries are made 3 days per week and most offerings come from The Gulf including the shrimp and lobster
April is National Food Month

Of course the creative genius within inspires him to constantly reach for new and exotic delights including elk antelope crab-stuffed f lounder Northern Pacif ic halibut and Maine lobster
He offers his staff the same opportunities to explore their creative talents by encouraging them to prepare samplings for the team to experience and if they make the grade will be presented on the menu Each evening the fine dining crew assembles for a ldquofamily mealrdquo tasting of the selections of the night (yep just like in the movie)
Chef Joel also embraces critique from The Culinary Committee which is made up of Longhorn Village residents who offer feedback at regular monthly meetings All resident input and comments whether positive or negative are read daily to staff members and are published to The Culinary Council for review
Dietary restrictions preferences or choices are known on an individual basis to allow each resident to enjoy the full dining experience without having to explain or make special requests
Another closely held philosophy spread throughout his team is an emphasis on full flavor portion controlled options that allow for a greater individual choice plated in small or regular sizes
I have had the great pleasure of working with Chef Joel and presenting his distinguished
works of art at business meetings all over the Austin area It has become common for my clients to ask when I schedule a lunch meeting if it will be prepared by our Chef again I often tell him he makes my work not only easier but that there is a sense of pride in knowing I will be greeted at the door with anticipation and a sense of admiration knowing my presentation will be remembered for his creative talent
A good cook is a peculiar gift of the gods He must be a perfect creature from the brain to the palate from the palate to the fingerrsquos end ndash Walter Savage Landor

In my therapy practice and in my home I see the increasing social and academic pressures for our kids Recently a poll conducted by NPR along with the Robert Wood Johnson Foundation and the Harvard School of Public Health found that nearly 40 of parents said their high school kids are experiencing a lot of stress from school Specifically longer homework sessions high stakes testing and more competitive college admissions are the drivers In my own school district and community the options for extracurriculars are countless and the sizeable academic menu of choices is growing
I realize that my children are incredibly fortunate to have these amazing opportunities I also realize that with great opportunity comes great responsibility How can I help my child find the balance between exposure to these resources and the ability to manage their schedules without creating an environment that is overwhelming and anxiety provoking
These are questions of course that families have to answer for themselves Just as individual families have varying priorities children vary on the types of schedules they can manage
To be sure adolescence is an anxious time As a parent we can play a key role in how our children experience anxiety Some things we can do as parents arebull Recognizeandhelpchildrenidentifyanxiousfeelingsbull Helpchildrendevelopcopingstrategiesbull Expresspositiveandrealisticexpectationsbull Validatefeelingsbutdonrsquotempowerthembull Encouragetoleranceofanxiousfeelingsbull ModelhealthywaysofmanagingstressandanxietyBy helping our children to identify and express their anxious
feelings we can begin to address concerns Like all uncomfortable emotions anxiety is a normal response that serves a purpose Helping our children label and express their feelings can be anxiety reducing Learning to recognize express tolerate and manage anxiety is a priceless skill As role models for our children coping with our own stress and anxiety can serve as a valuable example
Parents can model good stress management by making sleep nutrition and exercise a priority We can learn to recognize our personal limits for demands of our time and resources and set healthy boundaries And when indicated we can utilize professional resources like school counselors or independent therapists
If you think your child may have an issue with anxiety there are several symptoms you may notice Behaviorally teens may engage in unhealthy coping behaviors such as drug and alcohol use They may limit or avoid activities in an attempt to reduce anxiety Physically
Adolescents and Anxietyteens may report sleep disturbances headaches stomach aches or symptoms such as racing heart dizziness and muscle tension You may notice that symptoms are consistently very intense and go on for a long period of time Contacting a professional therapist can be of value in assessing the severity of the anxiety and determining if counseling is indicated
As parents we are instrumental in helping our children become healthy resilient individuals By setting realistic expectations and helping our children to prioritize their schedules we can teach them to set healthy limits and not over extend themselves We can teach them to tolerate and manage their own anxiety And when necessary we can seek out professional help

Dr RJ Jackson
For years orthodontics have been a ldquoreactiverdquo profession Parents would slowly watch their childrsquos teeth go from bad to worse while waiting for the baby teeth to fall out then finally visit an orthodontist for a set of braces Today orthodontics has evolved into a ldquoprevention focusedrdquo profession Longterm research studies have proven that preventing a problem from occurring is better than allowing the problem to occur and then fixing it The American Association of Orthodontics (AAO) and the American Board of Orthodontics (ABO) both recommend every child have an evaluation no later than age 7 Timing is of the essence because the ability to correct certain problems greatly diminishes as the child develops over time
Early detection and correction can also prevent future extractions improve self-esteem decrease the overall cost of orthodontic treatment and decrease the chances of dental complications later on Another benefit of early correction includes
improved stability which decreases the likelihood of teeth shifting back to the original improper position later in life
Although there are many benefits to treatment at an early age it is not recommended for every child Children treated unnecessarily can negatively impact their dental health and increase the total overall expenses for parentsThis is one reason it is imperative for parents to choose a board-certified orthodontist for treatment A board certified orthodontist has demonstrated competence and is held accountable for their work by the American Board of Orthodontics Only 1 out of 3 orthodontists are board-certified so do not make the mistake of assuming an orthodontist holds this recognition Your board-certified orthodontist will inform you if the time is right for orthodontic treatment
Contact RJ Orthodontics today to schedule a complimentary examination with a board-certified orthodontist

Of course the creative genius within inspires him to constantly reach for new and exotic delights including elk antelope crab-stuffed f lounder Northern Pacif ic halibut and Maine lobster
He offers his staff the same opportunities to explore their creative talents by encouraging them to prepare samplings for the team to experience and if they make the grade will be presented on the menu Each evening the fine dining crew assembles for a ldquofamily mealrdquo tasting of the selections of the night (yep just like in the movie)
Chef Joel also embraces critique from The Culinary Committee which is made up of Longhorn Village residents who offer feedback at regular monthly meetings All resident input and comments whether positive or negative are read daily to staff members and are published to The Culinary Council for review
Dietary restrictions preferences or choices are known on an individual basis to allow each resident to enjoy the full dining experience without having to explain or make special requests
Another closely held philosophy spread throughout his team is an emphasis on full flavor portion controlled options that allow for a greater individual choice plated in small or regular sizes
I have had the great pleasure of working with Chef Joel and presenting his distinguished
works of art at business meetings all over the Austin area It has become common for my clients to ask when I schedule a lunch meeting if it will be prepared by our Chef again I often tell him he makes my work not only easier but that there is a sense of pride in knowing I will be greeted at the door with anticipation and a sense of admiration knowing my presentation will be remembered for his creative talent
A good cook is a peculiar gift of the gods He must be a perfect creature from the brain to the palate from the palate to the fingerrsquos end ndash Walter Savage Landor

Submitted by Shelley Coleman MA LPC-SRecently I was fortunate to have the opportunity to speak to
the Canyon Ridge Middle School PTA members at their monthly meeting Specifically I was asked to speak on Anxiety and Children As a parent of a middle school child and therapy provider for adolescents this subject is more than relevant to me
In my therapy practice and in my home I see the increasing social and academic pressures for our kids Recently a poll conducted by NPR along with the Robert Wood Johnson Foundation and the Harvard School of Public Health found that nearly 40 of parents said their high school kids are experiencing a lot of stress from school Specifically longer homework sessions high stakes testing and more competitive college admissions are the drivers In my own school district and community the options for extracurriculars are countless and the sizeable academic menu of choices is growing
I realize that my children are incredibly fortunate to have these amazing opportunities I also realize that with great opportunity comes great responsibility How can I help my child find the balance between exposure to these resources and the ability to manage their schedules without creating an environment that is overwhelming and anxiety provoking
These are questions of course that families have to answer for themselves Just as individual families have varying priorities children vary on the types of schedules they can manage
To be sure adolescence is an anxious time As a parent we can play a key role in how our children experience anxiety Some things we can do as parents arebull Recognizeandhelpchildrenidentifyanxiousfeelingsbull Helpchildrendevelopcopingstrategiesbull Expresspositiveandrealisticexpectationsbull Validatefeelingsbutdonrsquotempowerthembull Encouragetoleranceofanxiousfeelingsbull ModelhealthywaysofmanagingstressandanxietyBy helping our children to identify and express their anxious
feelings we can begin to address concerns Like all uncomfortable emotions anxiety is a normal response that serves a purpose Helping our children label and express their feelings can be anxiety reducing Learning to recognize express tolerate and manage anxiety is a priceless skill As role models for our children coping with our own stress and anxiety can serve as a valuable example
Parents can model good stress management by making sleep nutrition and exercise a priority We can learn to recognize our personal limits for demands of our time and resources and set healthy boundaries And when indicated we can utilize professional resources like school counselors or independent therapists
If you think your child may have an issue with anxiety there are several symptoms you may notice Behaviorally teens may engage in unhealthy coping behaviors such as drug and alcohol use They may limit or avoid activities in an attempt to reduce anxiety Physically
Adolescents and Anxietyteens may report sleep disturbances headaches stomach aches or symptoms such as racing heart dizziness and muscle tension You may notice that symptoms are consistently very intense and go on for a long period of time Contacting a professional therapist can be of value in assessing the severity of the anxiety and determining if counseling is indicated
As parents we are instrumental in helping our children become healthy resilient individuals By setting realistic expectations and helping our children to prioritize their schedules we can teach them to set healthy limits and not over extend themselves We can teach them to tolerate and manage their own anxiety And when necessary we can seek out professional help

For years orthodontics have been a ldquoreactiverdquo profession Parents would slowly watch their childrsquos teeth go from bad to worse while waiting for the baby teeth to fall out then finally visit an orthodontist for a set of braces Today orthodontics has evolved into a ldquoprevention focusedrdquo profession Longterm research studies have proven that preventing a problem from occurring is better than allowing the problem to occur and then fixing it The American Association of Orthodontics (AAO) and the American Board of Orthodontics (ABO) both recommend every child have an evaluation no later than age 7 Timing is of the essence because the ability to correct certain problems greatly diminishes as the child develops over time
Early detection and correction can also prevent future extractions improve self-esteem decrease the overall cost of orthodontic treatment and decrease the chances of dental complications later on Another benefit of early correction includes
improved stability which decreases the likelihood of teeth shifting back to the original improper position later in life
Although there are many benefits to treatment at an early age it is not recommended for every child Children treated unnecessarily can negatively impact their dental health and increase the total overall expenses for parentsThis is one reason it is imperative for parents to choose a board-certified orthodontist for treatment A board certified orthodontist has demonstrated competence and is held accountable for their work by the American Board of Orthodontics Only 1 out of 3 orthodontists are board-certified so do not make the mistake of assuming an orthodontist holds this recognition Your board-certified orthodontist will inform you if the time is right for orthodontic treatment
Contact RJ Orthodontics today to schedule a complimentary examination with a board-certified orthodontist

To be sure adolescence is an anxious time As a parent we can play a key role in how our children experience anxiety Some things we can do as parents arebull Recognizeandhelpchildrenidentifyanxiousfeelingsbull Helpchildrendevelopcopingstrategiesbull Expresspositiveandrealisticexpectationsbull Validatefeelingsbutdonrsquotempowerthembull Encouragetoleranceofanxiousfeelingsbull ModelhealthywaysofmanagingstressandanxietyBy helping our children to identify and express their anxious
feelings we can begin to address concerns Like all uncomfortable emotions anxiety is a normal response that serves a purpose Helping our children label and express their feelings can be anxiety reducing Learning to recognize express tolerate and manage anxiety is a priceless skill As role models for our children coping with our own stress and anxiety can serve as a valuable example
Parents can model good stress management by making sleep nutrition and exercise a priority We can learn to recognize our personal limits for demands of our time and resources and set healthy boundaries And when indicated we can utilize professional resources like school counselors or independent therapists
If you think your child may have an issue with anxiety there are several symptoms you may notice Behaviorally teens may engage in unhealthy coping behaviors such as drug and alcohol use They may limit or avoid activities in an attempt to reduce anxiety Physically
Adolescents and Anxietyteens may report sleep disturbances headaches stomach aches or symptoms such as racing heart dizziness and muscle tension You may notice that symptoms are consistently very intense and go on for a long period of time Contacting a professional therapist can be of value in assessing the severity of the anxiety and determining if counseling is indicated
As parents we are instrumental in helping our children become healthy resilient individuals By setting realistic expectations and helping our children to prioritize their schedules we can teach them to set healthy limits and not over extend themselves We can teach them to tolerate and manage their own anxiety And when necessary we can seek out professional help

April Gardening TipsOffered by WeekendGardenerNet
Use the below information to determine what gardening tasks you want to accomplish this month
PlanningWhen purchasing bedding annuals this spring choose properly
grown plants with good color Buy plants with well-developed root systems that are vigorous but not too large for their pots Plants that bloom in the pack are often root bound and can be set back for several weeks after being transplanted Plants not yet in bloom will actually bloom sooner be better established and grow faster
For hot-weather color select one of the following Gloriosa Daisy Madagascar Periwinkle Ornamental Peppers Mexican Zinnia or Amaranthus Josephs Coat Plan to attract hummingbirds to your garden this year by planting red or orange flowers Monarda (common names beebalm horsemint Oswego tea and bergamot) is a good perennial plant that thrives in sun and provides nectar for these small birds

Dr RJ Jackson
For years orthodontics have been a ldquoreactiverdquo profession Parents would slowly watch their childrsquos teeth go from bad to worse while waiting for the baby teeth to fall out then finally visit an orthodontist for a set of braces Today orthodontics has evolved into a ldquoprevention focusedrdquo profession Longterm research studies have proven that preventing a problem from occurring is better than allowing the problem to occur and then fixing it The American Association of Orthodontics (AAO) and the American Board of Orthodontics (ABO) both recommend every child have an evaluation no later than age 7 Timing is of the essence because the ability to correct certain problems greatly diminishes as the child develops over time
Early detection and correction can also prevent future extractions improve self-esteem decrease the overall cost of orthodontic treatment and decrease the chances of dental complications later on Another benefit of early correction includes
improved stability which decreases the likelihood of teeth shifting back to the original improper position later in life
Although there are many benefits to treatment at an early age it is not recommended for every child Children treated unnecessarily can negatively impact their dental health and increase the total overall expenses for parentsThis is one reason it is imperative for parents to choose a board-certified orthodontist for treatment A board certified orthodontist has demonstrated competence and is held accountable for their work by the American Board of Orthodontics Only 1 out of 3 orthodontists are board-certified so do not make the mistake of assuming an orthodontist holds this recognition Your board-certified orthodontist will inform you if the time is right for orthodontic treatment
Contact RJ Orthodontics today to schedule a complimentary examination with a board-certified orthodontist

Dr RJ Jackson
For years orthodontics have been a ldquoreactiverdquo profession Parents would slowly watch their childrsquos teeth go from bad to worse while waiting for the baby teeth to fall out then finally visit an orthodontist for a set of braces Today orthodontics has evolved into a ldquoprevention focusedrdquo profession Longterm research studies have proven that preventing a problem from occurring is better than allowing the problem to occur and then fixing it The American Association of Orthodontics (AAO) and the American Board of Orthodontics (ABO) both recommend every child have an evaluation no later than age 7 Timing is of the essence because the ability to correct certain problems greatly diminishes as the child develops over time
Early detection and correction can also prevent future extractions improve self-esteem decrease the overall cost of orthodontic treatment and decrease the chances of dental complications later on Another benefit of early correction includes
improved stability which decreases the likelihood of teeth shifting back to the original improper position later in life
Although there are many benefits to treatment at an early age it is not recommended for every child Children treated unnecessarily can negatively impact their dental health and increase the total overall expenses for parentsThis is one reason it is imperative for parents to choose a board-certified orthodontist for treatment A board certified orthodontist has demonstrated competence and is held accountable for their work by the American Board of Orthodontics Only 1 out of 3 orthodontists are board-certified so do not make the mistake of assuming an orthodontist holds this recognition Your board-certified orthodontist will inform you if the time is right for orthodontic treatment
Contact RJ Orthodontics today to schedule a complimentary examination with a board-certified orthodontist

YOUR BRACES WITH DR JACKSON
Dr RJ Jackson
For years orthodontics have been a ldquoreactiverdquo profession Parents would slowly watch their childrsquos teeth go from bad to worse while waiting for the baby teeth to fall out then finally visit an orthodontist for a set of braces Today orthodontics has evolved into a ldquoprevention focusedrdquo profession Longterm research studies have proven that preventing a problem from occurring is better than allowing the problem to occur and then fixing it The American Association of Orthodontics (AAO) and the American Board of Orthodontics (ABO) both recommend every child have an evaluation no later than age 7 Timing is of the essence because the ability to correct certain problems greatly diminishes as the child develops over time
Early detection and correction can also prevent future extractions improve self-esteem decrease the overall cost of orthodontic treatment and decrease the chances of dental complications later on Another benefit of early correction includes
improved stability which decreases the likelihood of teeth shifting back to the original improper position later in life
Although there are many benefits to treatment at an early age it is not recommended for every child Children treated unnecessarily can negatively impact their dental health and increase the total overall expenses for parentsThis is one reason it is imperative for parents to choose a board-certified orthodontist for treatment A board certified orthodontist has demonstrated competence and is held accountable for their work by the American Board of Orthodontics Only 1 out of 3 orthodontists are board-certified so do not make the mistake of assuming an orthodontist holds this recognition Your board-certified orthodontist will inform you if the time is right for orthodontic treatment
Contact RJ Orthodontics today to schedule a complimentary examination with a board-certified orthodontist

April Gardening TipsOffered by WeekendGardenerNet
Use the below information to determine what gardening tasks you want to accomplish this month
PlanningWhen purchasing bedding annuals this spring choose properly
grown plants with good color Buy plants with well-developed root systems that are vigorous but not too large for their pots Plants that bloom in the pack are often root bound and can be set back for several weeks after being transplanted Plants not yet in bloom will actually bloom sooner be better established and grow faster
For hot-weather color select one of the following Gloriosa Daisy Madagascar Periwinkle Ornamental Peppers Mexican Zinnia or Amaranthus Josephs Coat Plan to attract hummingbirds to your garden this year by planting red or orange flowers Monarda (common names beebalm horsemint Oswego tea and bergamot) is a good perennial plant that thrives in sun and provides nectar for these small birds
PlantingBegin to plant seedlings of warm-season vegetables such as tomatoes
peppers and eggplants You can also start your pumpkin seeds nowSow beets beans cucumbers carrots lettuce sweet corn and
Your health is at the heart of everything we do From everyday assistance to rehabilitation skilled
nursing and memory care our team of health experts is focused on you so that you can focus on
getting the most out of life
Continue your journey discover new strengths
radishesPlant herbs such as thyme sage parsley chives and basilSod or sow new lawns and over seed damaged older lawnsStart planting out warm season annuals such as impatiens marigolds
petunias sunflowers zinnia lobelia alyssumFinish planting summer-flowering bulbs like tuberose gladiolus
dahlias and callasPlant chervil coriander dill rosemary and summer savory outside

April Gardening TipsOffered by WeekendGardenerNet
Use the below information to determine what gardening tasks you want to accomplish this month
PlanningWhen purchasing bedding annuals this spring choose properly
grown plants with good color Buy plants with well-developed root systems that are vigorous but not too large for their pots Plants that bloom in the pack are often root bound and can be set back for several weeks after being transplanted Plants not yet in bloom will actually bloom sooner be better established and grow faster
For hot-weather color select one of the following Gloriosa Daisy Madagascar Periwinkle Ornamental Peppers Mexican Zinnia or Amaranthus Josephs Coat Plan to attract hummingbirds to your garden this year by planting red or orange flowers Monarda (common names beebalm horsemint Oswego tea and bergamot) is a good perennial plant that thrives in sun and provides nectar for these small birds

Dr RJ Jackson
For years orthodontics have been a ldquoreactiverdquo profession Parents would slowly watch their childrsquos teeth go from bad to worse while waiting for the baby teeth to fall out then finally visit an orthodontist for a set of braces Today orthodontics has evolved into a ldquoprevention focusedrdquo profession Longterm research studies have proven that preventing a problem from occurring is better than allowing the problem to occur and then fixing it The American Association of Orthodontics (AAO) and the American Board of Orthodontics (ABO) both recommend every child have an evaluation no later than age 7 Timing is of the essence because the ability to correct certain problems greatly diminishes as the child develops over time
Early detection and correction can also prevent future extractions improve self-esteem decrease the overall cost of orthodontic treatment and decrease the chances of dental complications later on Another benefit of early correction includes
improved stability which decreases the likelihood of teeth shifting back to the original improper position later in life
Although there are many benefits to treatment at an early age it is not recommended for every child Children treated unnecessarily can negatively impact their dental health and increase the total overall expenses for parentsThis is one reason it is imperative for parents to choose a board-certified orthodontist for treatment A board certified orthodontist has demonstrated competence and is held accountable for their work by the American Board of Orthodontics Only 1 out of 3 orthodontists are board-certified so do not make the mistake of assuming an orthodontist holds this recognition Your board-certified orthodontist will inform you if the time is right for orthodontic treatment
Contact RJ Orthodontics today to schedule a complimentary examination with a board-certified orthodontist

improved stability which decreases the likelihood of teeth shifting back to the original improper position later in life
Although there are many benefits to treatment at an early age it is not recommended for every child Children treated unnecessarily can negatively impact their dental health and increase the total overall expenses for parentsThis is one reason it is imperative for parents to choose a board-certified orthodontist for treatment A board certified orthodontist has demonstrated competence and is held accountable for their work by the American Board of Orthodontics Only 1 out of 3 orthodontists are board-certified so do not make the mistake of assuming an orthodontist holds this recognition Your board-certified orthodontist will inform you if the time is right for orthodontic treatment

YOUR BRACES WITH DR JACKSON
Dr RJ Jackson
For years orthodontics have been a ldquoreactiverdquo profession Parents would slowly watch their childrsquos teeth go from bad to worse while waiting for the baby teeth to fall out then finally visit an orthodontist for a set of braces Today orthodontics has evolved into a ldquoprevention focusedrdquo profession Longterm research studies have proven that preventing a problem from occurring is better than allowing the problem to occur and then fixing it The American Association of Orthodontics (AAO) and the American Board of Orthodontics (ABO) both recommend every child have an evaluation no later than age 7 Timing is of the essence because the ability to correct certain problems greatly diminishes as the child develops over time
Early detection and correction can also prevent future extractions improve self-esteem decrease the overall cost of orthodontic treatment and decrease the chances of dental complications later on Another benefit of early correction includes
improved stability which decreases the likelihood of teeth shifting back to the original improper position later in life
Although there are many benefits to treatment at an early age it is not recommended for every child Children treated unnecessarily can negatively impact their dental health and increase the total overall expenses for parentsThis is one reason it is imperative for parents to choose a board-certified orthodontist for treatment A board certified orthodontist has demonstrated competence and is held accountable for their work by the American Board of Orthodontics Only 1 out of 3 orthodontists are board-certified so do not make the mistake of assuming an orthodontist holds this recognition Your board-certified orthodontist will inform you if the time is right for orthodontic treatment
Contact RJ Orthodontics today to schedule a complimentary examination with a board-certified orthodontist

YOUR BRACES WITH DR JACKSON
Dr RJ Jackson
For years orthodontics have been a ldquoreactiverdquo profession Parents would slowly watch their childrsquos teeth go from bad to worse while waiting for the baby teeth to fall out then finally visit an orthodontist for a set of braces Today orthodontics has evolved into a ldquoprevention focusedrdquo profession Longterm research studies have proven that preventing a problem from occurring is better than allowing the problem to occur and then fixing it The American Association of Orthodontics (AAO) and the American Board of Orthodontics (ABO) both recommend every child have an evaluation no later than age 7 Timing is of the essence because the ability to correct certain problems greatly diminishes as the child develops over time
Early detection and correction can also prevent future extractions improve self-esteem decrease the overall cost of orthodontic treatment and decrease the chances of dental complications later on Another benefit of early correction includes
improved stability which decreases the likelihood of teeth shifting back to the original improper position later in life
Although there are many benefits to treatment at an early age it is not recommended for every child Children treated unnecessarily can negatively impact their dental health and increase the total overall expenses for parentsThis is one reason it is imperative for parents to choose a board-certified orthodontist for treatment A board certified orthodontist has demonstrated competence and is held accountable for their work by the American Board of Orthodontics Only 1 out of 3 orthodontists are board-certified so do not make the mistake of assuming an orthodontist holds this recognition Your board-certified orthodontist will inform you if the time is right for orthodontic treatment
Contact RJ Orthodontics today to schedule a complimentary examination with a board-certified orthodontist

Dr RJ Jackson
For years orthodontics have been a ldquoreactiverdquo profession Parents would slowly watch their childrsquos teeth go from bad to worse while waiting for the baby teeth to fall out then finally visit an orthodontist for a set of braces Today orthodontics has evolved into a ldquoprevention focusedrdquo profession Longterm research studies have proven that preventing a problem from occurring is better than allowing the problem to occur and then fixing it The American Association of Orthodontics (AAO) and the American Board of Orthodontics (ABO) both recommend every child have an evaluation no later than age 7 Timing is of the essence because the ability to correct certain problems greatly diminishes as the child develops over time
Early detection and correction can also prevent future extractions improve self-esteem decrease the overall cost of orthodontic treatment and decrease the chances of dental complications later on Another benefit of early correction includes
improved stability which decreases the likelihood of teeth shifting back to the original improper position later in life
Although there are many benefits to treatment at an early age it is not recommended for every child Children treated unnecessarily can negatively impact their dental health and increase the total overall expenses for parentsThis is one reason it is imperative for parents to choose a board-certified orthodontist for treatment A board certified orthodontist has demonstrated competence and is held accountable for their work by the American Board of Orthodontics Only 1 out of 3 orthodontists are board-certified so do not make the mistake of assuming an orthodontist holds this recognition Your board-certified orthodontist will inform you if the time is right for orthodontic treatment
Contact RJ Orthodontics today to schedule a complimentary examination with a board-certified orthodontist
